h&r's

[leighk18]

can people please post pics of clios on h&rs lower the better want to see how low these can be turned down thank you very much

 

[Martin_172]

H&R's for a 1.2 8v? isnt that a bit excessive? lol

 

[leighk18]

other things in the pipe line wont be staying a 1.2

 

[Martin_172]

i seee wish i had converted mine but didnt/dont have the time anymore

h&rs go just as low as FK's or there about i think... heres my old one...

back maxed out on 195/45/15

 

[Weeman]

agreed bit pointless on a 1,2 tbh, overkill overkill overkill

but heres the best looking cup on here for me, young Christophers ledge on H+R's

 

[Alan]

Love that cup...^

 

[kully]

the cup looks very nicely balanced :evil: .....

 

[Day]

Wouldn't want to go any lower!

 

[leighk18]

are the turnis 16's? and ya they are over kill for the 1.2 but that will be getting changed wanting to sort rest of stuff out first

 

[leighk18]

Wouldn't want to go any lower!

thats looks nice but the back still sits to hight for me i no front down is the better approche tho

Result of a £300 set up by a motorsport specialist buddy.

The "rake" increases turn in, probably won't help you in MaccyD's

 

[leighk18]

o right in that case its good then i want low atm i now it wont handle as good as it should but like the look of it been slammed

 

[brownale01]

yer but with a 1.2 you dont really have to worry about it being set up properly to take corners as effectively as possible do you, so getting it slammed as low as possible is a good thing, and then when you get a new engine as said above^^ you can adjust it

 

[Day]

Go for some cheap springs - 60mm perhaps?

Don't see why you'd want to spend loads on suspension for it not to handle :S

 

[Martin_172]

i had mine slammed on its arse and it handled really well once it had been set up, then i went on a mad handling mission and raised it a bit hand had it set up again and it handled much better on rough roads but not much different on smooth roads (or a track!)

 

[leighk18]

there h&rs are off a mate im running 60mm springs atm and not happy with how low it is if i had to buy new then id go for FK's as there cheaper but as said these r a steal of a mate so why not

 

[brownale01]

i say go for it fella

 

[Weeman]

Gravel spec ride height FTW!!!!!

love how low yours sits in the pics were u not running FK's?

 

[Martin_172]

Yep FK Konigsport Silverline X coilovers the adjustable damping ones with the koni dampers, handled superb especially once the polly bushes were on it, but not a million miles better than the 172 with eibach sportlines with standard dampers and bushes

 

[leighk18]

well if it all goes thought hopfully the h&rs will make her handle better i just need get some new rear shoes then go down to my mates work shop were we going to fit them

 

[Weeman]

I still wouldn't put H+R's on unless your going to track it, otherwise adjustable suspension and all the money of H+R's is a waste, but each to their own, eibach springs???

 

[leighk18]

its on 60mm apex springs now and its alright but aint low enuf for me the h&rs are going very cheap to me off a mate so why not and hhopfuly once shes is built up with the engine etc yup she will be doing track days

 

[Weeman]

Crack on then. Does your mate have any cheap BMW e30 ones he needs rid of?

 

[CHRIS172CUP]

i'd get them if you have the money spare otherwise it's a bit of a waste imo.

personally i would find a way of getting them myself as they improve the ride a lot.

 

[leighk18]

yup the the other reson i want them the ride quilty got to be better than this apex s**t lol

 

[Christophe]

go for fk konigsport. They cheaper and have adjustable hieght and dampers. wouldnt go for h&rs for 1.2

 

[leighk18]

as i keep saying these are going cheap not brand new and the clio is not staying as a 1.2

 

[DazG]

This is my 182 lowered on H&Rs, can't get it any lower otherwise it won't go in the driveway!

 

[Weeman]

nice house

 

[Christopher]

proper bucket, that
