Right, Now my Clio's on the road its a tad on the low side, bout 40-50mm IIRC, its got williams dampers with some dodgy springs,

I need to stiffen it up allt as i like it stiff :wink:

did someone on here recomend std dampers with custom mate stiffer springs. or was i going mad..lol


Any idvise or recomendations, i would get AVO's but there bout 320 and im skint and also need brakes... :lol:

PM bayliss for the number as there is a company in sheffield who will wind you custom height and poundage springs for £130 (inc del iirc) they do take about a month but afaik he's happy with them

Look in tweeks catalogue for companies that make springs.

It was richy, and he runs 200lb springs on std williams shocks

I was gonna go for 250lb springs on shortened uprated adjustable spax shocks.....but sold the car.....still going for 250lb springs, just on coilovers as i like it stiff too

they used to put 250lb springs on the GAZ coilovers

250lb springs are way way too hard for normal road use

in your opinion, i like it set rock solid tho, got both avos set as hard as they will go and it still too soft....need stiffer springs :)

yeah i have new std dampers but 200lb std height springs, it could obviously be harder in both spring rating and having a different damper, but im more then happy with mine, it can be a little bumpy on back roads but still comfy! great fun on track :wink:
