phase 2 172 lowering with Turini's

[CraigV6]

I am getting a 2002 172 and want to lower it 40mm and put a set of Turini's on it.

I will be running 195/45/16 tyres.

Is there any problem with this set up and rubbing?

I have searched and found varying answers.

no problem

What suspension set-up are you using it, i want to make the Cup more chuckable and handle better, dunno where to start, coilovers too expensive...

Isn't the Turini's and 195/45/16 the standard set-up for the Cup?

Thanks fUbAr.

Does anyone have this set-up on a flame red phase 2 172?
That's what I'm getting (Turini's are going to be anthracite) and wouldn't mind seeing a picture if there are any available.

Ali has them. It looks ace. Think he has them on -30mm Eibachs.

Yep no probs at all.

Do a search and search in the Media section > Clio and search for 'Ali' 'A3 LYR' 'pink bus' 'Flame red' etc

what about 205/45's? will they rub with a 40mm drop?

 

[Gaz_]

i think they will...... slightly

 

[Ali]

I've got 205-45 And it's fine until you've got heavys in the bak...tho i reckon my dampers are shot!

How much have you lowered ali? remember the cup as std was a touch lower to begin with than the std 172.
