ausmini :: View topic - Suspension Setup?

Hey,

Im just about to buy fully adjustable suspension for the mini. Im looking at adjustable geometry, gaz lowered shocks and hi-los.

What i was wondering is my car is only used for weekend driving (if that at the moment) so what kind of numbers are good for handling on the mini?

I was thinking maybe -2 camber on front and -1.5 on the rear but thats about all ive got at the moment. I have 12x5 wheels and haven't touched the guards as of yet.

I will also be getting new cones all round so i was also wondering what have people found to be the lowest you could take a mini with it still retaining its handling and street driveability?

I know it is a personally choice but i just wanted to see what people have found works for them and what characteristics the car has with those settings.

Thanks Blake

Thanks Blake If the car is mostly for road use I would recommend standard length shock, not lowered ones. Settings - PM sent.
