I have coilovers on which I have removed the helper springs and notched the chassis but can only go down as far as the damper travel and would like another inch. I have seen extended tower tops but was wondering if there are any other alternatives or ideas out there as dont want to spend £2K on air ride!

Well 'sallyandsean' I can see 2 options.
1. Let the air out of the tires.
2. whip the wheels off.
The ride, balance and of course steering will be compromised but it's lower!
Just having a bit of fun because I've no idea!
