    Has anybody had experience with lowering their car with aftermarket shocks ? I have a 488 and installed aftermarket shocks and was told that I can lower the car by adjusting them, but now the car seems very bouncy. Now I’m told I need to install coils , has anybody had this problem ?

    Most people upgrade to the Novitec lowering springs that work with the stock suspension components.
