[jenic]

I'm wanting to lower my car about 40mm. Looking at these:

Will they be ok for my 1.2 dynamique, do i need to change anything else like shock absorbers, do you get 4 in a pack?

Thanks
Mike

yeah pack of 4 lol

apparently apex springs are quite hard and crashy....seen some RSs with them on and they do look good though.

im sure others are in a better position to stay.

welcome btw

all you need is the springs if its only 40mm drop, ive heard that is u go more than 40 it is recommended to change shocks.

you doing it yourself ?

i will admit,
i have apex springs on my car,
3 hour drive n my arse is agony!
day to day though theyre more than livable,

Eibach Sportlines. I've got them on my 1.2 Dynamique. Ride isnt too harsh and the drop is quite good too. Pics in here....

Also how much will they lower it?

 

[adam_socks]

iirc, 172 springs will only fit 1.4s and above, and no they wont lower the car, not 100% sure though

 

[jenic]

Thanks, nevermind.

Will prob get the apex's.

 

[joshhatton]

i would strongly advise you get a garage or profesional to do it make sure you get your wheels realined aswell

 

[jenic]

My uncles got all the equipment to do it, hes a bit of a pt mechanic. Wouldn't dream of doing it myself.
