Ben, you seem to know your stuff, ive just fitted 60mm Pi springs to my clio, and on the rear springs the middle 4 coils are touching (6 coils in total i think)!!! Is this bad??? If you sit on the boot the car still bounces up and down, so there is some travel in the springs.

Thanks

hmm, not having dealt with that rear suspension personally, i wouldnt really know. But what did they lok like when they were in the box, did teh middle springs seem close when they were not stressed?
are they progressive? if they are, progressive springs are meant to have teh tighter or closer coils at the top, not in the middle? the spring on all the cars i have seen have evenly spaced coils..weird.

They were evenly spaced off the car and then they are together on the car!!! i think ill give Pi a ring

 

[BenR]

i think you should too.
