body roll

[domjolly]

hey guys ive dropped my car 60mm and slapped 15" alloys on it but i still feel like there is a shed load of body roll on my car what else can i do to reduce this? anything i can buy

Could be the side-walls of the tyre flexing.

What springs you running?

ktr's from k tec the only other thing i could think it was would be becuase of got it on standard shocks!!! im not really sure where to get uprated ones..... my tyre pressure is fine as well becuase i thought the might be to low and the tyre rolling on the alloy

lol!

So you drop the car on harder springs, fine that'll remove some of the roll and lower the centre of gravity. But what gave you the impression Renault rolled out the Clio 1.2 on sports orientated damping units? Rolls bad enough on a 172, let alone softer dampers.

Upgrade dampers, then if you're still not happy upgrade your mounts/bushes to powerflex or something.

yep get some new dampers that are more sports orientated koni ajustabull's are good from what i have heard

Or try one of these http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=275196

I can vouch for Koni Adjustables, good piece of kit. Failing that the usual brands like SPAX will offer a similar thing albiet probably not as technically brilliant.

New dampers will sort you out though, easy to change too.

even the H&R set up still gives some roll on the back of the car, i've read of some people being dissapointed how soft the back is..

oh well , the German techs who put them together know what they're doing ; It's probably roll or FLIP

but yeh, you'll need more than just the springs to satisfy
