Default S type lowering

On the look out for pictures of S types that have been lowered 25mm on H&R springs! I've looked through the gallieres but to no avail! I'm mainly after pics of the 1999 era S type's!

Mine is going to be lowered 25mm next week but unsure if 25mm is low enough or how it will even look. I don't want to waste my money by having them fitted if it's going to look crap

Also, is using hubcentric wheel spacers reccomended with lowering? I've read good and bad about this

Thanks in advance.




Sitting pretty in the Autumn Colours

No speed bumps etc around there? Expect trouble if there are!!

Even sharp changes of height (ramps etc) will be a pain.
