how low should a volvo go?
 

just a curious question for next year, how low should a volvo go? lol
i admit i like 60mm and i know the 850 would realy disagree with speedbumps alot but somehow i like the look of it, so is it worth just goin 40mm to be on the safe side?

I used to own an 850 T5 estate and lowered that 35mm. Handling was greatly improved as was the look. Personal experience would suggest that 60mm will not really be suitable for our ruined roads. I had grounding out issues with mine.

Go the other way .. give it a 2" lift!

As said 35/40mm will be max,to still be driveable(mine's is lowered 35mm)

And cracked the splitter(bummer^^)but ordered a new one allready.

Is this for looks only or allso improvement on handling(than i suggest to put a set of ipd torsion bars on aswell.)

yhh ive been told 35/40mm would do the job, im looking for handling wise so that would probably be best, haha thats why i wouldnt want to lower it too much due to the roads around england, thanks

thanks i do realise now that 60mm is a bit toooooo far lol does the handling improve alot with your 35mm springs? thats why i wouldnt want to lower it too much incase parts scrape lol

its for looks and handling, ive always liked the car to look a lil bit low but have realy good handling so it can be chucked about more, thanks ill deffinetly buy some torsion bars when i buy the springs :) thanks for the reply
