Clio now 60mm south

[paulboy247]

Finally dropped the Clio 60mm a couple of weeks ago. Pleased with the new stance, much better than -35mm. Gave it a wee clean and took a few pics. I know it won't be to everyone's taste but I like it myself so I'm happy.

Not really modded. Just silvervisions. Think the driver's side one was slightly condensated at the time though lol.

This kit. Was £280 when I bought it then they increased it to £330 the next week. Heard a few people say the ride quality with PI stuff isn't the best but tbh it doesn't feel much harder than the springs I had on before. Suppose the new shocks helped a bit too though.

That sits nice good work fella

Ive always heard that PI is bad. Thats what i heard about my old apex kit aswell, but that wasnt so bad either. £280 was a bit dearer than my old apex kit too ! People always mone about hardness of springs, now i have custom rear springs and trust me they are rock fuckin solid

 

[coventry_kid2006]

they 15"s or 17"s? mines booked in the garage for a 60mm drop on 15" on friday and was wondering if mine would be same sort of height...

[Luker1990]

there you go buddie... I love that colour, my girlfriend is looking for one that colour but they are quite hard to come across!

 

[JCC]

Nice, 60mm is THE ONLY way to go with non-rs's ( apart from coilies before you say it ANDROID ) Those rear lights are doing nothing for the car though.

 

[Ed]

Look like 17 inch team dynamics from halfords!

 

[paulboy247]

Thanks clio 1990. Still got to work out how to post the pics like that (little dim with computers lol:clown

coventry kid they're 16s on it the now. wouldn't personally drop 60mm on 17s tho. Yours should eventually sit a wee bit lower than mine if you're on 15s.

 

[Luker1990]

thats ok mate.... anytime!

 

[GarethM]

tidy

 

[coventry_kid2006]

Thanks, i shouldnt get any problems with scrubbing then? I was a a bit worried that when on full lock it would catch the top of the arch. Shoudnt be an issue i hope! this is it today after i put my new alloys on -

Would you expect any problems droping 60mm ??

Back is a bit higher than that but it has my old alloys in the boot!

Sorry to hijack your thread!

 

[paulboy247]

nah 60mm should definitely be ok. I've only ever got a tiny bit of rubbing once when I was 'enjoying' the back road home one afternoon lol. badly needs lowering looking at them pics tho

 

[Alastair.]

30mm drop on non rs is pointless, 60mm is where its at, looks good fella.!

[BillionaireBoysClub9]

[BillionaireBoysClub9]

[paulboy247]
