Anti roll bars
- Thread starter juffy

Wanted to go eibach but they don't do them for the Clio, so white line seem the only other option. I'm running BC coil overs and they are on the stiffest setting and the car is till rubbing badly on the front arches in fast cornering on track so I'm hoping front and rear anti roll bars will solve the problem.
Any good traders on here selling them?

Does anyone even make a stiffer anti roll bar for the front?

When I was having some tuition at Oulton park with an Instructor (apparently raced clio's) he said my front was too soft and he asked if I had a uprated front anti roll bar after saying no he said go up a few clicks on the damping see if it help's. I'm not really clued up on setting up a car for handling so just added a few clicks and went back on my way.
Not really but you can get stiffer bushes from powerflex.
Raise the front up or put some spacers on ?
Surely stiffening the rear torsionally will put extra load through the front ?!
Mines on 'standard' BCs and I don't get any rubbing at all. 25mm spacers up front... and quite low.
Is it rubbing inside or outside on the tyre..

I was unsure if white line do a front ARB, now I know the answer.
The car rubs badly on the inside of tyres, I can get a stronger spring for the BC's but I didn't want to go down that route yet.
TheEvilGiraffe the car is fine on the road but only rubs on fast track work. I only wanted the ARB to help with the front end. Im just going to have to work on the ride height and the springs and go from there.
Cheers for the input Guys

how low is it?...
40mm is about the limit, and will need archliner cutting and stuff bending out of the way
what wheels are you running?
16" will rub more than 15" (not by defenition but 15"will give you more room to play)
what spring rates are the BC's (standard they are about 50 I thinnk) ppl think Bilsteins at 75 are soft for track...draw you own conclusions..then again most of the serious trackers on here start at about 80N/mm does 5N/mm make such a big difference?)
one of the traders one here enquired about interest for a stiffer front arb a while ago....lots of ppl wanted one....never heard of again.
would be a good solution as it would enable runnimng a softer spring.....increasing grip.

Rubbing on the inside... OK.
Try a 10mm spacer and steering less

Had too do this today as mine is rubbing on passenger side I thought the suspension was bottoming out. Bent the bracket out the way and also looks directly under where the fuse box is there is a little dimple that looks like the tyre had rubbed it a few time so hoping that's my rubbing issue and if need be will enquire on stiffer springs for my BC. Although I don't know at the minute what Kg the ones fitted are so need to check.
