Quick question

[182tev]

Can you get 15" wheels sat nicely fitting the arches with just lowering springs such as apex 40mm ??

Looking for a low cost solution without killing the handling. Its my daily car and not used for track.

Sportlines and tractor look

cooksports look to offer decent lowerage, i'm putting the winter 15's on this weekend and the cooksports are going on sometime later in next few weeks as I have a list of arch protection and refurb strut jobs to do too, so I will post pics upon completion to see what it looks like

Apex kills handling

Since when?

 

[MartinR]

The ride and handling(skittish ) is shocking on apex springs...

 

[Rob]

Ride quality is a little crash, sure, but the handling is actually alright. Doing 90 around a bumpy corner might be a bit hairy, but other than that they're a decent solution to getting a car low on springs.

they are literally the worst springs I have ever had the displeasure of using, 90 on a bumpy corner? be so lucky, you can do about 40 max before your arse puckers so tight you have to back off or be pitched out the roof by the hideous bounce. awful awful things.

I ran them on a ph1 non sport for about a year with no issues, and it was awesome fun. Maybe the sport offerings are worse.

Came on my 182, I would of honestly of rather drove around on broken standard springs. I thought they were awful!

Couldn't agree more!
