MK3 loweing. How much better are more expensive springs? Which should i buy and why?

[jon1993]

I want to lower my car around 30-40mm but dont want to spend the 175 for eibach springs so how much worse are the cheeper springs?

LO suspension £66.26 (30mm)= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-C...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2eae1911b1

APEX £86.39 (35mm)= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-C...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item415a39782d

PI Springs £135.50 (30/25mm)= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/RENAULT-CLIO-Mk3-FACELIFT-10-12-1-5-DCi-30mm-PI-LOWERING-SPRINGS-/230890082051?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item35c21f0f03

H&R £167.59(45mm) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/H-R-Renau...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item416a0d4d42

Eibach £174.29 (30/25mm)= http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Eibach-Pr...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item231f624159

so is the extra cost worth the advantage gained from the extra expense also which would you buy and why? If not any of these which others? Thanks to anyone that can help.

I have the eibachs on my GT and they are brilliant well worth the price I got mine for around £135 after abit of shopping around, the handling and road holding feel so much better takes a lot of roll and pitch out

Can you remember where you got them from at all?

Not off the top off my head, ill have a look and get back to you, best thing to do is find the eibachs model number for you car and google that, there are two different sets of springs as Renault revised the front shocks on 2010 models onwards

You got 35mm springs with what size alloys?
I just got mine the gap is a bit high:/ I was thinking 17" with 35mm all round ,I dont wanna go lower causes problems and feels too bumpy and uncomfortable
