Pics of my clio after lowering

[Ben P]

I posted the other day saying how I had lowered my torsion bar myself and put 55mm springs on the front.

Well here are the results. (Excuse the dirt on the car, snow and grit will do that)

Just wait for Daz to post them as hes hosting for me. (Cheers mate)

[Ben P]

They are 15s with 195/45/15 tyres and an et38 offset

With 4 people in the car I get no rubbing or scrubbing at all. The ride is very firm though but I can live with it.

Cheers for the compliments too

Looks great Ben - just right.

craigy172, get the Eibach 30mm springs Mike or Roamer will tell you the part number, you shouldnt have any problems with rubbing on these

* Daz falls over

Fred recommending -30mm springs?

* Daz looks for glasses

I reckon he left a zero off the end of his suggestion 30(0)mm springs are probably what he meant

 

[craigy172]

david from k-tec has emailed me says 30mm drop and fit is £128+vat inc cliosport discount

 

[Fred@BTM]

Good price!!! If it were my car though id fit coilovers and slam it in the weeds!!!!!

yes i would too but have got too many bills bit pricey for me so this will have to do for now, never had any of my cars lowered before this will be my first, will it make alot of difference 30mm does not sound much but im told it will when its done but thanks all for your help
