nivomats?& suspension?

[mhill53]

Could someone take the time to explain exactly what they are and what they do? Also to those of you that have lowered your 850's,what springs have you used? Have you kept the origional shocks or changed to aftermarket parts? My R looks asthough the front could sit a little lower!

Nivomats are a sort of self levellers,so when you lower your car(with springs)they "think" it's got a load in the back and will try to level.

Best option when lowering,remove the nivomats for something else(coilovers)
