looks great, when getting my rear springs done- I was told they were an extra when new as it's fitted with the mg sports suspension- i presume lower or stiffer coils and shock absorbers?
I wheels ramps, I can get the tf at the rear up no problem but not at all on the ZT. The car is just too low to drive up them |

Ah theres three standards of OEM springs and shocks, Rover 75 standard, MG ZT standard and then MG ZT Sports Pack standard which was original equipment on them at the start and then became optional, usually where confusing comes from.
Where you springs the sport pack versions originally or the normal slightly softer zt ones, as im curious as how the car rides now.

I like the idea of a slight drop. 30mm sounds spot on.
Gives the car a low but wide stance which really suits it I think!

Perfect,should be made compulsory

Ive persuaded the misses to buy me a set of new springs for my birthday. Be having a set of these, new ones fab'd up mind you.
Where your springs the uprated sports pack originally or the softer springs lad?
