then i run out.

next up was the camber shims
after braking a fair few torx bits i finally got the stub(ben) axles off and fitted the shims

2x 1degree shims on each side

i then removed the adjuster on the rear springs to get some more lows.
I now need to lower the front more, I lowered it a further 20mm but tbh its made 0 difference it needs a good 40mm drop imo, and then remove the front splitter for a more flat one.

that front needs to go down a tad more i reckon dude! helper springs out? feel sad i didnt keep mine and go down this route now :(
 
  CLIO PH1 172
The front WILL be coming down I need to source/make a new splitter first that isn't as thick, it needs to be flat

Camber looks bloody mean, matches the front now. Shims easy to put on? Did you not go for bigger spacers?
Still my favourite ph1 :)

I have these on there way :D

I will then put my 30mm spacers I have on the front on my rear and put these new 50mm spacers on the front. So my fronts will be spaced another 20mm and the rear another 5mm.

And the shims arnt tooo bad to fit but you need to take all the rear brakes discs stub axles off so pretty long.

So the 50mm stud conversion spacers ARE ON!

Looks better imo also stopes the front to match the rear.

  lots of clios.
Should try get the dished wheels for the back! big improvement with the spacers though :D dare i say, lower? ;)
 
  CLIO PH1 172
I can't get the rear any lower without custom springs or adding weight to the back, which I really do not want to do!! so I figure getting the front and rear sitting the same is the best way, plus since I have drove it home about 1and half miles it's settled down and dropped a tad more ! :)

I very happy with the results though and didn't have any problems with bumps dips curbs ect ... Like i thought I would
