Pics when done please as I may get the H&R springs instead. Also a review of what its like driving with them in UK roads haha
For sure - although be gentle with the condition of the alloys - they still need to be refurbed! Yeah I'm strangely looking forward to the challenge of our road quality :D

Don't forget the whole geo reset and corner weighting as per somewhere to the factory spec when you replace the springs ;)
"They don't tell you about all that"
Most people just chuck them on and think wow it looks lots better lower:rolleyes:

Ash did mine after the springs. The combination made it much more confident.

Geometry alignment is next - I wanted to get the wheels refurbished first and let the springs settle first. 49% front 51% rear weight distribution is where it needs to be, but at the moment, it’s closer to 50% split. I have H&R spacers on already :)

I put a set of Steve’s paddles on as well - they’ve transformed the driving experience and you can fit them without taking the steering wheel off.

Looks great. Best update for these cars are springs and spacers. The gap between wheel arch and tyre was the one bit of the look of the GT that Maserati got wrong. Lovely stance yours has now.

Looks great!
I was gonna say you must already have spacers, as at that ride height you'd need binoculars to see the wheel in the arch with standard offset lol.

Be interested to hear how you get on with the ride hight, as it looks a fair bit lower than mine, and mine has the occasional scrape.
