Clio MK4 RS - Lowering springs and rear camber.

[Tonka Honka]

Hi - I have a set of Cooksport lowering springs to go on in the next month.

Front - I plan to replace the camber bolts as well I have seen Powerplex and Stance bolts - does anyone have experience of these or should I stick with OEM?

Rear - I understand that the rear has no adjustment,,, and I will end up with a little negative camber! Downside is some increase in tyre wear AFAIK - not an issue but are there any other drawbacks? Adjustable rear arms look like overkill if the only issue is a bit of tyre wear. Comments/Suggestions/ Sarcasm/Advice???

You can get camber/toe shims for the rear. Pure motorsport sell them. I don't think camber bolts work on the front of these. Only ways is to put adjustable top mounts in - check @Adey. thread out

Thanks for that. Looks like I should have done some homework,, Plan B - I'll ask Santa for some coilovers - BC coilovers are camber adjustable if I read the blurb right! Is there an alternative I should be considering?
Scorpion exhaust goes on next month along with braided brake lines and a full service is booked inc. a new Aux belt and tensioner. The pre-sale service was an oil n filter one so before it starts to earn its keep I'll make sure its fully serviced. Once the smole clears from all this a full powerflex polybush kit will go on.

So, I now have a set of Cooksport lowering springs I dont need. If anyone is interested £125 inc. postage.
