What Coilovers For 182 For Megga Low?

[Pauldredge]

right im wondering what coilovers would be best to get for a 182 so that it could go low... i dont mean like 50-60mm... i mean 80mm plus

 

[clio_luke]

i think gaz coilovers go pretty low.

 

[Pauldredge]

how low? i see alot of people have HRs as well... how low do they go?

 

[clio_luke]

i have no idea, 'low' is not always the most comfortable or most well performing setup.
in my opinion -50mm front and -40mm rear is perfect. i wouldn't go much lower. 60mm max.

i would guess that gaz lower by atleast -70mm (have seen some very low on here but stories of a harsh ride, no supprise being that low really)

 

[Pauldredge]

yeah dont worry im used to harsh rides haha!

had my old 1.2 clio 60mm, then my fiesta st was around 100mm and now the TT is about 60mm i thinks.

if it is looks over go, i would suggest FKs mate. the ones F0xy had could take after-market springs, allowing for a lot more lowering. think around 110mm on the rears IIRC

mines about 70mm or something on H&Rs but gaz go lower but the ride is suppose to be shocking so ive heard

mines pretty low on gaz coilys. rubs like a b**ch. Got loads to be wound down but i think this heights enough

howz about cut springs!!

This option is for people with death wishes i believe..

 

[Tom84]

mines on gaz and its quite low and its not harsh at all once i got the shockers set right

 

[Slammed172]

howz about cut springs!!

lmao.

pretty much all coilovers go too low, so yeah pick any apart from cheapy ones as they dont go as low as most.

but im pretty sure that everyone on this forum as thread left to go lower, but they choose not to, due to rubbing and safety.

Think the rears on the AST setup can go 4 inches lower due to rear coilovers. Wouldnt recommend it tho!!

 

[Pep]

AST's without a doubt, can go 100mm lower than these pics too on the threads!! undriveable though!

a little higher

 

[Firas]

gaz coilovers im sure go silly low but they advise you not to drive at very low heights but is there only for show purpose

 

[Fletcher]

I'd go for a set of AST's.

 

[The Boosh!]

AST's ftw.

 

[Tom@JMS]

Your a fool if you spend £1200 on a set of ASTs, probably the best set of collies for the Clios just to slam it on the floor, I'd feel their pain for not being used properly lol

What a gay!

Car was only that low as I had just fitted them and wanted to see how cool it looked, which it did look awesome!

Was soon lifted up to a semi sensible height.

 

[Jordi17]

How easy is it to adjust them? is it an easy thing to do yourself or is it a case of getting it done at a garage etc?

Sorry mate misunderstood me, I know you were just playing with them lol, but there are people that would buy them just for that and keep them like it!! sorry again fella!

 

[Pauldredge]
