    Yes, this could be true! - You may need to lower further.

    Also remember - the Temperatures in the UK are a lot lower than Italy - so our set-up's will be different for many reasons :smile:, driving style, etc etc.

    I will email you my latest geometry print out and ride height in March when I have it re-calibrated

    Hello friends, I finally tried it on track AST 5200 kit.
    So at first I was very bad because I was driving the car when it was as stock, then I realized that I had to drive to work well bad so I could see that I can brake much later and pull the detached up to inside the curve, what that before I could not do. In this way the machine runs the curves very well. But I have to find the perfect setup because after the middle of the corner there is a little below the steering acceleration. I also tried the new Toyo R888 R and go moltoi much better than the old, the best pressure that I found was the front 1.4 bar rear 1.5 bar.
    I want all your impressions and advice.
    Thank you all.

    So are spacers needed for mounting AST coilovers or not?

    Hello DodottiR26,

    Great to hear that you had the change to test it on track! The pictures you posted on our FB are very nice!

    i'm Julian from AST-Suspension HQ in the Netherlands.

    We made a change in the design of the bracket for the Clio 3 RS and the Megane 2 RS.
    They run the same shocks in the front actually.
    I just bought a 225 and will be fitting a kit asap.. I'm not sure if you are running the revised or the older version.
    When did you receive the kit? Then i can check the production details.
