sorry to go a little off topic, but either set probably has a few kms on them, why aren't you looking to \"upgrade\" to a newer item (you'll feel a world of difference)?

what could recommend at good price that would keep the same ride height
as stock springs

\"at a good price\" all depends on your budget.

Koni's are a great budget setup.

clubman springs aren't the same spec as the '90 na6 - they're firmer & apparently the bilsteins have a slightly lower spring perch meaning clubmans sit a cm or so lower - see thread below:

I'm not sure

The standard ones lower 35mm

The height adjustable page only shows their lowest setting (distance from stock height)

Sorry can't be more help :frown:

I've got Kings in my Clubman (so you'd expect it would be reasonably low with the lowered springs and the lower perches) and I havent had ANY scraping issues at all. My stock height Skyline scraped everywhere

If its an old car the standard springs it will have dropped a bit anyway - people who lower thier car with old springs are often surprised it hasnt made much difference.
My Clubman has stock springs and shocks and has a hell of a lot of clearance...
