Got some lede coilovers to go on my 3 door ....but i have many stories about the car being very skippy....do i sell them and get some new konis??? or is there a better set up anyone can suggest?

Help i need to sort out as the summer is coming

 

Most stories that are bad about coil overs are because they are fitted with to hard a spring. most second hand coil overs come from track cars and people fit them straight onto road cars and then complain they are to hard.
Fit the correct springs and you should have no probs.

 

also thru people not setting them up properly....there are plenty other settings other than FOOKING HARD lol

 

I have them on the front of mine and didnt like them when they were first fitted. Quite used to them now though.

I wouldnt fit them unless i had to, needed the arch clearance due to 18" wheels. Think the konis give a much better ride.

 

 

when mine were fitted i hated them, high speed handling was awesome but ride qaulity very poor, i need to change my springs on the rear cos there on soft and still skippy, and get alot of axle tramping when i launch hard.

if your just using it for road use i would stick with koni tbh

 

THIS is really pi55ing me off! i want to poly bush my whole car and fit new suspension next month!!

MY COILOVERS
OR ANYONE GOT A BETTER SET UP IDEA ?????????????????


HELP ME

 

I use koni shocks and ahmed springs on my 500 i set the rear shock to three quaters and the fronts on half and it works realy well and it dosnt bounce all over the road

 

SPAX PSX (adj damper) kit. Had them on my 3dr and was well impressed. The good thing is that you can adj both front and rear dampers with them on the car unlike the Koni rears that have to be removed.

Ł425 from Demon Tweeks i think.
