hi all, As per title have a Meg 3 with Ohlins and wondering what options I have regarding lowering ride height. Does anyone Know if th springs can be replaced with a lower option? Thanks Rich
They are coilovers so you can drop them buy 10mm from factory setting ? I very much doubt there is any other lower springs other than the composite springs but doubt they are any shorter
You can only drop them 8mm at the front only, not even worth the effort from an aesthetics point of view! You can use any mk3 RS lowering spring with the Ohlins as far as it physically fitting, I believe.
Or just leave it as it should be ? 8mm is still 8mm and I wouldn't want to ruin a set of ohlins either
You need some AST top mounts, 2.5inch closed end springs and possibly a helper spring depending on spring length, alternatively RSC do a kit but it's mighty expensive. http://rsmegane.com/threads/rsc-sus...oilovers-brand-of-rs-center-switzerland.6044/ Rear you can use an appropriate off0the-shelf spring like cooksport if it's the correct rate.
Thanks for the feedback guys. Decided to go down the full coilover route - options in considering are 1) Intrax 2) KW Clubsport 3) nitron. In that order so watch th space come April/May..
