Default Lowered Geometry

My fellow Brits, i met with some of you during the Eurotrip. I had a fantastic time... luckily enough we did not get arrested that afternoon...

Anyway my issue is this...

I installed my KW v.3's some time ago and i want to make some adjustments. I am very happy with the way the car handles but i m a bit OCD perfectionist and i want to get the 100% out of my mod.

I have the car lowered to KW's recommendation at 320mm front and 335mm rear (measurement from center of the wheel to edge of the fender). That means that it sits lower 30mm in the front and 35mm in the rear.

I am considering to use roll center adjusters and anti-bumpsteer kits. I know exactly what the rca and anti-bumpsteer kits do but in order to find out whether i need them or not, the proper way, i will have to spend lots of time and money (removing springs, measuring, doing adjustments etc.)

At what lowering point does the car need roll center adjusters and anti-bumpsteer kits? I know that many of you have had your geometry done at CG and i am sure that you went through this issue. I hope that you can help a bit.

I also noticed some trembling on speeds over 190 km/h while on throttle, meaning that i will have to use half-shaft spacers as well.

Mikey, thank you for your PM.

Now apart from you it seems that nobody cares about the issue addressed and they simply don't bother. Appreciated guys!
