Exactly Dud. Yours will handle better than ypur mates. To low and your compramising the characteristics of the van to much. 60mm dose me fine and it handles better than some cars!

mine is lowered by 50mm and noticed a difference straight away and as for handling its much much better if you want it to handle like a sports car you got the wrong vehicle these are classics not designed to go round corners at speed
