Serviceable coilovers

[HG182]

Just wanted to try and get an idea of common serviceable coilovers that people are using. I’m currently looking into upgrading my Ktec basic coilovers. Budget of around £1000.

Hoping the knowledgable folk you are will be able to list some options and prices of decent choices?!

Cheers

I take it the car will be more track focused? If so I’m sure the Bilsteins can be serviced but sometimes cheaper to get a new unit? If I had 1k for coilovers the Bilsteins would be my choice.

In truth the car is more of a weekend toy/ fast road kinda thing, or at least the aim as I realistically will only end up doing around 4 - 5 trackdays a year! But very much enjoy the look of the car being lower than shocks and springs sort of setup. Can you buy the B14 struts separate!?

Bc's are getting high praise. That's where my money would go.

B14 are a very good option though

Which BC’s in particular? Any links chaps?

Like these? Seem to be very well specced. The height adjust with the bottom mount to retain the travel is brilliant!

Thinking if I did go this route go 6kg front and 8kg rear. I’ve read a few posts about rear rate going stiffer to reduce the understeer.

8KG all round is a good setup.

Not sure on if they are any good on a Clio but Avo are serviceable and are good to deal with. I used them with the Puma and will be going with them on the Twingo.
