    205 40 16 Tyre Question

    Was just wondering if anyone has fitted 40 profile 16" tyres to their 182. Is it a deal breaker? Only asking as there's a set fitted to some wheels for sale and wasn't sure whether it would make a massive difference or should stick to the OE 45 profile. Cheers

    Agggh! The endless track coilover and spring rate debate!! Help!

    My 1st set of RSX rear coilovers were purchased in Feb 2013 and didn't have helper springs only the 225lbs 11" items. They lasted about 11k and less than a year so Spax sent me a pair of new dampers under their 2 year warranty. I think i'll go 275lbs and 10" as it's primarily a road car (182 FF...

    Agggh! The endless track coilover and spring rate debate!! Help!

    I have the 11" Spax springs and will order the 275lbs Faulkner springs, do you think i should stay with the same length? I only ask as you've mentioned the 9". How mine sat with the 11" seemed ok ( approx 20mm higher than arch line) but would like the option of lowering the ride height a bit...

    Brilliant morning, good to meet more people and some i know already. Cracking location, the breakfast was a decent size, and a nice run out for the Clio. Phase1sr the Clio is just stupidly ultra new, like better than factory, a pleasure to look round it. A nice little run out on the way home too...

    I've just had a look on the Faulkner website and they have any combination of spring length and poundage to suit. These are the 250lbs springs, £31 each http://www.dfaulknersprings.com/acatalog/1.9-Inch-ID-11-Inch-Free-Length-Standard-Spring.html
