Apex Springs - Yes/No?

[M88KE C]

Hi guys,

As the titles says, are they any good... Found a great deal on them and I'm wondering if it's too good to be true?

:blink:

 

[Fernandez]

I would say yes. I have them on my motor and love em, the stance is great and so is the performance, they are however very crashy on the road but on the twisties and the track they are really good.

They certainly didn't let me down at "How Fast" as I beat all the coilover and H&R boys..

Thanks pal,

Found them for 95£ for all four inc vat - thought that was pretty good!

Larkspeed pal. They emailed me back this morning. Great price!:jump1:

If they're anything like the Clio II springs they'll be bone-shakingly hard, from all reports...

 

[Jcs]

a set came on my 182, awfully crashy ride :/. Don't know how they are on 197/200 though

 

[Fernandez]

Yes, they are bone shaking. Depends what you want really, if you want looks and comfort go for H&R but if you want better cornering performance get Apex.... Simples

H&R's aren't comfortable lol

"Bouncy" is one word I would use to describe H&R's.

Lol, Apex are def not bouncy.

I don't know if it's cos of my tyres or cos I run on cup dampers or what but you feel EVERYTHING on the road lol

Great round corners though.

So the Apex ones are worth a 'punt' then

Thoughts on these spacers?

Thanks bud. Can you just confirm exactly what I need...I'm not worried about them being steel as they are cosmetic.. I'll remove them for track days etc

 

[Willis]

Fitment you need is 5x108 off the top of my head.

You're a good man buddy! Anything else I need to know?

I shouldn't get any rubbing with a 30/40mm drop with a 25mm spacer should I? :bounce:

 

[Rogue]

There's a good chance you'll get rubbing

25mm spacer is huuuuge.

 

[M88KE C]

Hmmm recommendations please the guys... Would a 20mm spacer be better?

 

[Willis]

I think Henderson uses 16mm and his looks bang on. It's on H&Rs too and from what he was saying the other month he's not had any issues with scrubbing etc.. Personally I don't trust Spacers and would rather go down the route of changing my wheels to a set with a different offset instead. Although that's obviously a fair bit more expensive then a set of Spacers...

 

[newman90]

I have 20mm ones but tbh I might go 25 on rear
