40mm??

[Dan@Greenlight]

Just looking at getting a set of springs for my ph2 clio 172.

After some opinions, seen some 40mm Apex lowering springs for a reasonable price, wondered what these would be like?


Would the ride be too harsh? Would it be too low with a set of 16" turinis on them?

Cheers in advance

It is not an exaggeration to say (according to Cliosport) that the Apex springs are one of, if not the, worst lowering spring on the market.

Eibachs & cooksports offer a similar height yet get loads of comments on how well they achieve a good trade off between ride quality and firmer sportier feeling.

Useful to know, is it a case of 'you get what you pay for'?

Thanks for letting me know, I will leave them

Get Cooksports. Only £120!

 

[Dan@Greenlight]

So blimmin hard to get a hold of though arent they!

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

They're instock right now. Get them while you can! http://cooksport.co.uk/product-CooksportRSClioSprings.html

I have them on my inferno. Nice drop and the ride isn't too harsh!

Thanks mate, I will get those ordered first thing tomorrow

Read really good things about them.

£120 as well, that is really reasonable.

Another quick question instead of staring a new thread, what shocks do you reckon.

A few people have said about cup shocks?

Yeah cup shocks will be fine. Standard 172 & 182 (non-cups) are too tall I think, and aren't as good with the damping side of things as the cup ones

Are there any other options worth considering?

 

[ThomasBrentnall]

Koni adjustables are the only others I can think of off the top of my head! However they're a fair bit more expensive than cup shocks

Will stick with shocks thanks, I am not using it for track so will pick those up
