Will standard R56 S & JCW aftermarket Coilovers work on a GP2?

I like the way the GP2 drives but I want it lower? Can I buy used normal R56 Coilovers? Also I won't track the car so I want something that can go low, but drive as smoother or smoother than the stock GP2 Coilovers.
Thanks
Mario

GP coilovers are pretty smooth.

Yes and coil overs that fit a standard R56 will fit the GP. They mount the same, but you will get more camber up front since the towers are slotted. We have several options, but personally the GP coil overs ride pretty good.

Our special TSW Spec KW V2s may be a great option.

The stock GP2 coilovers are height adjustable and can be lowered.
