Ive been warned off them but want to give them a try first... im aware there are a lot on ebay but not entirely sure of which ones i need to get?...

anyone selling any 2nd hand?
 
Why try when the clear advice is to steer clear? Might aswell add the extra £30-40 and get the Eibachs. I would rather run standard over Apex. They ruin a car that handled well out the box in my view.
 
Put an ad in the wanted for a new set of teeth and a back brace if you are goin Apex

+1 i have had them so my advice is to do what i and others did and get sportlines they are talked about alot because they are so much better, but i no you only want apex for the lowz ;)
 
Haha, yep youre right, i am after a slightly lower stance and APEX springs seem to do that without having to shell out more money for coilovers.

I appreciate your comments and feedback in what you are trying to say, but for every person ive seen say that APEX are too hard, i have seen just as many people say that they are fine and they like them. So with this in mind i would like to give them a try and form my own opinion on them. If i dont get on with them then i will concede and save up for some coilovers... i think its fair to say that everyone is entitle to form their own opinion on something?

Previous to my Clio's, i owned an Evo 5 on Tein Superstreet coilovers with solid top mounts that was set very low, thus giving a very hard ride and i didnt have any complaints with that so im going to give them a go.

So the next step is, where to buy from? anyone bought them before?
 
Theres a lot of people going on about how harsh Apex springs are... Ive got a set of 40mm Apex on the 182 and surprising I think there ok, there not as harsh as everbody makes out and I got mine 2nd hand for £40

I do believe Eibach are alot better but I think these Apex will do me for now, also the car sits well with them too.

As mentioned eBay have a few for sale on there or put a wanted request out on here in the wanted section.

Im going to give Apex a try, and if they arent to my liking il put the standard springs back on and then save for some coilovers.

Just need to find some now... if anyone has a link to any let me know! there seems to be so many different types, dont have a clue which ones to get with it having cup suspension (if that makes any difference?)
