ive a pain in me arse taking these out and changing things:mad:

right the problem i have..... with helper spring on the handling, feel and return to centre of steering is brilliant. BUT cant get the car to sit low enough cos of the spring platform being to close to the tyre even with 5mm spacers (comon problem with coilovers)

run with no helper spring and the car sits  at the perfect height i want handling is fine but the steering feels weird return to centre is almost non exsistant and if i turn the steering wheel on full lock then move the car forward slowly the tyre rubs the suspension tie arm not what id expect from £500 odd worth of suspension.

the only thing i havent tryed after reading a few posts at this stage is to move the camber to full out with helper spring on and 5mm spacers.

everyone else that has these has no probs with the spring platforms going by there tyres. i just cant see how.

my wheels are 16*7 et 45 with 195/45 tyres

any ideas muchos appreciated:boggle: [/quote]
