Aye I agree, looks sound as that. Wll be epic to see what she looks like rolling flat on her [%*^#@!] though. Thinking of screwing off the remap n saving for coilovers instead. Get them fitted ASAP. What you done with ur old alloys Mike? |

Thanks for the comments. Coilovers is definitely in the pipeline for future mods. I sold my 19's mate, my wife is 7 days past due with our second baby so the combination of the car being on 35 profile tyres and lowered 45mm was a bit too much. Plus I always fancied going standard on some Resolfens seen as mine is an LX and came with steelies and trims!! Give it a bit of time and I will have it low on coilovers!! |

Your coilovers will fit dont worry!! LX SX and VTR+ are all just trim levels. LX is the most basic trim level with less features so it doesn't have front spot lights, has steel wheels and a different interior pattern. I have an LX so my car had steelies on when I got it and I hate them. |

Yeah im sure they would do the job of getting your car low!! I have seen them before but not sure what the quality would be like for that price!! If you decide to go for them then a review on the quality and durability would be good. |

Might be ok, but I'd be very careful. I think with some of this stuff you really do get what you pay for. | ||||

These are the same one's I have. They're ok, I've certainly felt worse. Im down about 1/3 of its potential and its pretty low. Just remember to do your strut top's at the same time, as mines both went within 2 weeks of me getting the new suspension fitted. Where possible I would suggest solid top mounts (I know they were quite common on clios) but don't know where to source from, maybe someone could help out in that department? | ||||

My car now on KW coilovers. Before this I had TA Technix coilovers which cost around £250 new but the ride was nowhere near as good as these KW coilovers. At approx £800 new these are very expensive but in my opinion they're definitely worth it!!  |
