Coilovers

Hey guys, Im from the UK and looking to get some coilovers for my Fit/Jazz
Its a 2006 Model.
Just wondering what ones are around, what height adjust each ones have, that kinda thing.
Want to try and get my car down as low as I can, without spending an astronomical amount of money.

Thanks guys, hope you can help me!

Hi, braziers. Welcome to FitFreak!
There is a category specifically for Fit Suspension:
https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-suspension-brakes/
I'm not running coilovers myself yet, so I can't speak knowledgably about them, but there are plenty of folks in that section who can.

I'm pretty sure you'll need jdm-spec suspension with the smaller bolt size for the front struts.

I'm pretty sure the european model is like the jdm-spec model with the small bolt holes for the front struts.

Ahhh ok cheers for that guys.
A mate told me that Tein coilovers are good, and arent too expensive.
Anyone have these and willing to give me some feedback on them?
If I cant find some coilovers in my price range, might just stick to some springs, for the time being
