[Peugeot-L] Re: lowering the 505 Turbo

It's your car so you can do what ever you want but 18" wheel is simply too large and will be totally out of place in a car designed more than 25 years old!!! It will just ruin the rare classic look of 505 and turn it into a very ackward looking part rice burner, part low rider and part classic european sedan. And you own one of very rare 505 model remaining worldwide so you owe to your self to keep the car as original as possible.

But, if you must do and lower, here is a option. You can have coil springs custom made to your spec. You can send your original springs to the company and they will make new springs based on original spring rate and ride height and your desired spec. There are several companies out there when I searched online. I can't remember the name but one of them could do a set for about $300.
