Clio mk3 Height

[Conor5921]

right guys, I own a clio mk3 1.5 dci 106, wanting to lower it so it makes it look a little more sporty(a little more like the cliosport if you must).

what would you say is the best ride height to improve handling and getting rid of that nasty wheel gap, without 'slamming' it.

gonna try not to spend a lot of money on lowering it but if it has to be done it has to be done.

My 197 is on 30mm lowering springs and I think it's spot on, not 'slammed' at all, a bit firmer obviously but not crashy. There's still a slight arch gap but it's miniscule.
With yours being a 1.5 dCI not sure what your options are tbh - but I'd say 25-30mm.

35/ 40mm springs on standard shocks. Anything lower is coilovers.
Mine's on AP's, but not slammed. Think it's about a 40mm drop. Wheels are 17" Megane Nervasports

This is around 60-70mm at a guess with standard 16s and 205/50/16. Ap coilovers as above.
