KYB shocks and 40mm springs, anyone run these local to me?

Eye up ,
after reading some bad reports about ksport coilovers (they are on the cheap side for coilovers?!) Im thinking of just going for KYB shocks and -40mm eibach or similar springs

Koni yellows would be nice, as i have these on the 205!

But does anyone near me ( south, hamphire) run this set-up so i could
come and see what its like as my mx3 is purely road/daily driver i dont want to make it to much of a harsh ride, or any comments on this setup

Cheers
sam.

Cheers mate looks great lowered and thats the height im after really for our roads, these cars handle sweet tahts for sure and i dont wont to mess to much, even comparing it to my 205 a little bit, just missing that turbo kick :D

cheapest i can see apex -30mm springs is 93 odd quid wich is good.

Im on hayling Island btw, but cant seem to find the page for uploading that info into my profile though.
