Craving moar lower. Actually I really love the ride height right now, I don't scrape on anything. Diesel coils in the front cut 3.25 coils, stock turbo rear springs cut ~2 coils. Old almost dead Koni reds up front, Billy HD's in the back. For a budget suspension that cost me almost nothing, I'm fairly happy. The negative camber and wider tires made the most difference in handling though.

Too bad it's only at stock height due to the hideous and excessively large rims, is there even a turning circle left on it?

That doesn't matter cos it's fully sick right? Dumpd in the rear bro.

But it's the truth that no-one else will say. Following what everyone else does on every other make is the way to do things is what makes the volvo's so unique? Wait a minute...that doesn't sound right.

I can vouch for the turning circle of a 240 with 20's. Been in one. No noticeable difference.
