Suspension - Lowering Springs

When converting MR02EV to an electric vehicle a lot of weight was removed with the petrol engine and then put back, mostly in the form of batteries, which affected the vehicle stance. I just did not look right.

I tried to fix this through different wheel combinations, but never quite got there. I had a minor obsession with wheels for a little while (which did not impress my wife).

And then found King lowering springs - KTFL-83 and KTFL-36SP.

Installing lowering springs drop the car by 1inch (about 3cm), improved the stance and handling. But ruined the ride …. but oh well.
