Lowering my mk2, 1.2

[xReiss]

Hey was looking to fit some A-MAX lowering springs (40mm) as i dislike the standard height but dont want to slam it completely becuase the country roads i live around are litered with potholes. was just wondering since my clio is a mk2 Phase4 (2oo8) that theses springs will fit the shocks, dont know too much about cars but i imagine they do. https://www.ebay.co.uk/p/653103966

Amax are terrible. Eibach sportline would be my choice

Hi I just bought some 50mm springs for my sons clio and it lowered it alot but the back is lower than the front. Anyone know why this is ? Cheers

poor quality springs more than likely, designed to fit more than one model and then when fitted to a 1.2 8v the front sits higher due to less weight.

Just put different springs on front a little better

Cheers bud lol could do with still going down a fraction at the front he's wanting a set wheels for it but I think it will need to be 14s lol don't know if 14x7 will fit. And I'm going to wrap it for him soon too

get 15s on that no problem id say, just run 195/50/15, sure my first car was lower back in 05!

 

[Dogg1210]

Sound might have a look into it will 15x7 fit or are they to wide

Looks decent, should be able to pick some 15’s up pretty cheap.

Would look good on some silver F1's that.

I ran 195/45/15's.
