Hi
Has anyone got any info on Springs for a Williams 1,
I need a new front spring for my Williams 1, the original has broke. Renault are charing £70 odd quid for a spring.
I see Apex offer 2 for the same price, has anyone experience of Apex springs? Is it a much harder ride and much lower?
cheers
Nick
Ride is fine but they'll lower the car so you'll have some issues with the tyres rubbing on the arches when turning the wheels.

thanks for th ereply, tink I will stick with the originals, have to get them from Renault, no one else stocks them.
Cheers
Think 1.8 16v ones are the same so you could get them from a factor.
I'm sure someone can confirm though
try and find yourself a set of 172 or 172 cup springs. get a pair and change both of them.
if you wanna get them from Renault then again buy two. hardly want one worn spring and one new one

Any difference between the 17poo cup Springs and the Williams ones. Spring Rate wise etc?

supposedly a tad stiffer i believe but where i live the roads are a killer for sports vehicles, i also have a pair of apex 30mm lowering springs

are there any difference in ride height between the 172 cup springs and the willy ones?
