I can get springs made for the 300's. What ride height are you looking for? What use is the car being put to?

Spring prices are £50 a pair for simple spec ones like this.
1" lowering is not a problem. Poundage I can work out as well. What model and engine is it for?
If you want 1" lower than your car is sitting now I will need you to measeure the ride hight.
I can sent them to Northern Ireland no probs.

The height is measured from the wheel centre to the edge of the wheel arch.
If you measure from the ground the size of wheel and tyre would give different readings.
