Suspension on a 182

[bigvin]

Does having the cup suspension (with normal tyres) on a 182 make any difference to the cars body roll?

Its not that bad anyway, but I would like to make the car stay a little flatter round the bends if I could.

A slight amount.

 

[bigvin]

I didnt think it would.

I guess I am just a fussy git!

 

[McBunny]

get better suspension its the only way

 

[bigvin]

Any suggestions (and cost)?

 

[McBunny]

eibach springs about 122 i think

 

[bigvin]

Thanks for that.

Will it shake your teeth out if you go over a pothole, or do they still keep the ride quite smooth?

 

[McBunny]

very smooth imho how it should have been in the first place

 

[Tom]

best thing to do is test the 182 with the cup pack.

that may answer your questions

Mine has no real problem with body roll.

Thats the best way I can describe my 172 now (with eibachs fitted).. and it only lowers about 10mm.

i have considered eibachs for mine for cosmetic reasons.

but it will possibly screw it up so i will wait.

I think I will have a go in the dealers 182 which has the cup pack on it and see what I think.

Otherwise, I might investigate into these eibachs and see how much I can get em fitted for (if I can find a good independent in Gloucestershire).

Thanks guys.

At my Renault dealer there has not been one single buyer of the 182 that has not opted for the Cup suspension pack. THe Cup suspension is a must at £200.................
