Getting springs made up

[u33db]

Does anyone have links for companies that'd do this?

Also whats the routine...i assume they'll need to know the required poundage but what about ride height?

Thanks in advance.

springs for what car...

i had a set made up through mark ritchspeed, cant get them via him no more like, but they required the freestanding height and what poundage i wanted them at, also the height be it std or lower etc and obviously what car so they can make the correct set

not sure who can do this now, not looked into it for years, although i beleive if you ring avo they still might be able to make a set for you

springs for what car...

Clio RT.

I'm not splashing out on coilovers to lower it so custom springs seem the next option

how low do you want it?

i have a set of 55mm springs for an RT here that i want sold.

[u33db]

Thanks but its got -55mm springs on it atm and isn't low enough TBH.

Well i say that...

The rear is lowered so the sills are level and i'm happy with the way that looks but i'm wanting the front a bit lower to tidy the handling up.

I don't know...the ideal option is get some lower springs on the front but it may be more hassle than its worth, maybe i should just raise the back up a tad to a more normal height and be done with it?

-55mm on an RT is lower than my valver is now on 35mm springs and shocks.

[u33db]

Really?

I always remember my old 16v being super low on 35mm springs but that was years ago and on 55 profile so perhaps it wasn't really?

I don't have any pics of it now but heres it with its new owner a while back;

My RT now (bad pic);

That was right after i lowered it so its settled a bit now but front arch has plenty of space left IMO.

?

yeah that looks and sounds about right... what colour springs are on it?

You cant go much lower in springs else the shocks will bottem out too quick.
