The suspension is already lower by 10mm on the ST. Its the TDCI Eibachs that you need. Once changed give them a couple of weeks to bed in and then be sure to get the tracking checked.

You basically have to give them time to settle before checking the alighnment.

i had my ST lowered about three weeks ago and am going to get the tracking sorted this week, if you have it done at the same time as the springs fitted it will need doing again! it needs doing after the springs have bed in, which will take a coupe of weeks. I am having trouble getting the tracking/allignment sorted though, because the car is so much lower now.
