well I have took a chance on a set of FK automotive lowering springs... From Germany direct from FK for a Citroen C4 Picasso (the berlingo/partner springs cross refer from h&r/eibach so I figure they should swap the other way too)
I have no clue what they're like, probably harder than ideal but it's a van and will be having some form of 17" wheels soon so it'd be rude not to get em when they are under 27 quid delivered from Germany lol...

(This post was last modified: 02-06-2016, 09:10 PM by dumdum.)
They were 40mm f&r so should make it a little less van like (this is obviously on a Picasso, but the others that cross over list no different between the partner/berlingo and Picasso models, so I would think similar)
I'll do a before and after pic and how it handles with them, I can compare it to my old 406 on weitech springs and 19's and my V6 partner with 16" steelers on whatever I put on it as I have no clue lol, I'll measure arch to floor front and rear to get a proper idea as I've lowered stuff before 40mm and it's been 60, and sometimes it's been 20mm lol...

That's them, I bought them through eBay for a little buyer protection as they seemed too cheap
