Vitally important to get the car set up once lowered, camber caster toe on the front, camber toe on the rear. Or yes there will be handling and tyre wear issues. See full geometric set up at the likes of wheels in motion Chesham. Mention omega owners forum if your a member.

Hi Chris
Thanks for input, there is also the question of self levelling suspension ! kit suppliers tell me wont work with self levelling !!!
surely you can fit springs only and car will still level to NEW level, its there to compensate for weight increases in rear of car, ie passengers and boot shopping etc !
If fitting complete system ie springs n shocks then you do away with self levelling, but just springs should be fine ????
