what suspension should i buy?

[kev182cup]

I have a 172 cup and want the bugger lower and to handle better,
since you guys are a wealth of knowledge i put it to you. dont like too low thinking about 30 at front and 20 at rear.

Any pics would be good too, cheers.

 

[caister]

Depends on budget. Any ideas?

 

[kev182cup]

[kev182cup]

just checked out the koni springs, they don't seem to make them for 2.0ltr clios, or at least not on the 5 or 6 websites i've looked at... ??????

long day... looked for them the other way round!!! doh!

 

[Fred@BTM]

they do as part on the "koni kit" not available separately i believe, the eibachs are the ones to have though (sportlines specifically)

 

[chriscup77]

i have got some sportlines for sale if you want the they are 3 months old.

[chriscup77]

not much lower mainly makes the handling really good

 

[kev182cup]

dunno if its same on yours but the front on mine is really high, hense the lowering the back is fine.
