Lowering with nivomats, anything I need to know?

Gonna lower the 850r looks like it's got nivomats, anything I should know? Or just as normal

Hi think you will have to remove them as they set the ride hight as well as the springs it ,
If you change the springs they will think you have a load in the back and bring it back up after a few miles driving.

I have standard shocks which i was going to flog when i change mine to bilsitens in next week or so. Though if u want u can have them for cheap mate

you'll need new top mounts too cos they are different

Sorry guys i have gas shocks as well to change. So just as normal in that case by the sounds of it.

just buy normal lowering springs and shocks for your car but you will need new top mounts as the nivomat tops are different

Where do you get new top mounts?
