Big shocks problem

[Jesske]

I ordered myself 2 Koni Sport rearshocks and 2 frontshocks for my 182 with sportspack.
The reardempers are perfect, but the front ones don't fit.

Anyone a clue?

Yep 182 oes havn't been made Koni etc don't rel;iase front ones are different than the 172 they though they were the same you can bodge them to fit but otherwsie take them back.

My tuningshop thinks the other shocks (1 kind for all other Clio models) will fit because it's 58mm. What do you think?

Nope 182 CUp pakced are 60mm.

You could make 58m ones fit but there not the risgh spec for a 182.

Stock aare fine if you want to upgrade then spend a lot on H and R/Leda etc or just refusb the whole setup.

Apparently Koni are aware of the differences between the 172 and both 182 models... I have a non cupped 182 and have tried on 2 ocassions to get konis fitted.
The 2nd time around they contacted koni who said that 6 months they will be on sale, which it has been about that now, still havent heard or seen anything though.....
