2006 mk1 s80 T6
Hopefully someone can give me some advice. I bought some lowering springs from classic swede, the handling has improved but the ride is now unbearable. The slightest pot hole and it feels like your fillings have fallen out.
My question is, what suspension set up would give me good handling but a better ride that I currently have. There must be a good set up available for the mk1 s80. Also what performance modifications can be done. Many thanks Steve |

fitting lowering springs compresses the shocks beyond where the softer part of the damping. in to the part that is more firm . you have bypassed a part of how shock absorbers work
