Astra GSi - Can't find -40mm springs?!!!

[sammy_lou]

Hi all

I'm uprating the suspension on my mk3 astra GSi - was going to get a full spax or koni kit but all the kits I've seen only lower 25, 30 or 35mm. So I've decided to get some top adjustable Koni shocks but I can't find any 40mm springs! Eibach do some which lower 45-50 but that's probably gonna be too low with the infinity kit & it'd be impossible to get on & off my drive!
Can anyone help? Or has anyone got some pics off an astra GSi on 17"s lowered 40mm or more so I know what to expect?

Thanks for anyones help!

bare in mind the gsi is lower as standard 15mm or 25mm IIRC

so 40mm will be harsh

Cheers for the reply.
Harsh as in harsh on the dynamics of the car with the weight of the engine etc? Do you think 30-35mm on the front will be fine due to weight of the engine? But what about the back? Don't want it's arse stuck up in the air!
Lowered my other astra 40mm with the same kit & that was fine but it did have a diddy engine - that's why I'm a bit lost when it comes to getting the car lowered but not knowing how the weight of the engine etc will affect it.
What would anyone recommend?

Thanks all
