My mk3 Clio dci 106

[Conor5921]

This is my Clio, absolutely love it but im wanting to do a few things to it, lower it, spray the alloys black, and some other little bits and bobs.

not sure how low to go as around my area there is a lot of speed bumps and back roads with pot holes, i am not too fussed about 'slamming' it, just want it nice and low but not too low that i scrape badly on speed bumps and bottom out etc.

any help would be appreciated.

See my thread of 35mm lowering on a mk3 Clio
Give you a rough idea

I've got coilovers and 17's. I'm old now (33), and the roads are terrible around here. It can be horrendous driving to work.
I've had 2 wheels repaired due to them being dented, and 1 has had to be scrapped. I don't even drive fast (you know those old people who take 100 yards to get upto 60mph out of a 40mph? I'm a young version of that).
I keep thinking of changing back to standard, but it looks so damned good! 😂

Haha, keep it low, mist cars look right about 30mm lower than standard. Same for me, country lanes with lots of bumps and I have 17s too

Believe Molzo's is a non-sport, and mine is a DCI 86 too. :wink:

Do a search on the forum. There's a mk3 thread which will give you some ideas. :up:

I'm getting some ap coilovers which lower "40-70mm" then gonna set it at the lowest.

 

[Dom_capper]

Probably won't need lowest, they go lower than they quote. You can go scene low by taking the rear adjusters out.
