goin 60mm you will have to get dampers as well other wise the ur exsiting ones wil jus pop,these is what demon tweeks told me and also everybody else will say the same.

cheers fella u'd be suprised ad a couple of places saying i'd get away wit springs coz its a sport model but demon tweeks and k tec reckoned springs and dampers jus wanted to make sure

not a problem, im in the middle of tryin to do mine as well, have to have my wheel off and measuring the gap between the the 2 screw holes on the dampers to see if its 54mm or 58mm coz theres 2 kits they do for clio, u might have to do same as well because the fella at demon tweeks sed all mk2 are the same
