Clio 182
They say "FK are affordable coilovers for affordable price".

Now imagine, Raceland coils are cheaper than FK.
But tbh they are that cheap that you don't waste a lot of money IF they broke. Shame that they lower the car almost too much for me. Post a pic with highest setings

Will probably last 12 months, maybe. You get what u pay for end of!!

emailed raceland yesterday, and was told they dont make them for the renault clio....but here we are seeing people fit them to clios
so i guess thats as clear as mud!

Thats interesting. Maybe they fit as same spec as another car (not sure what), or maybe the seller has modified them to fit. And do they def fit, has anyone actually fitted them to the car yet?
Clio 182
Raceland brand from China makes them for Clio. :rasp: Real Racleand should do something about stealing their brand name. :nono:

ahaaa, i thought they looked too good to be selling coilovers for £160
i shall try and find a way to contact "chineese raceland"!
the coilovers wont be that bad, my mate had a set on his old leon cupra r and they were good , really smooth and handled well , were close to the kw v3's i had on my leon cupra r at the time , dont be put of by the price , i bought a set of jamex coilovers once and they were just cheap ling long ones with bits sprayed on them !!! you have got to remember that companies have got to make a good profit out of bits so the easiest way is to buy from poor countries where the labour rate is cheap , that way if you buy direct from the supplier you get them cheap without the english dealers whacking there price on them !!!

True, but as has been stated, these have a 24 month warrenty. So regardless, they'll last 2 years. lol.
And I found myself laughing at the FK vid. Are we supposed to stop buying FK's because of that then? The internet is full of old wives tales and gossip. Most on here just fit what somebody else told them to fit anyway!
These coilovers are cheap, we realise they are cheap, but at £160 its worth a punt I reckon. And to get TUV approval they can't be that badly made.
If they are crap then I spend an evening taking them off and flog them on. Simples.

What are the chances of them fitting a 172 cup... a piece broke of the spring of my front ns standard susp... really need to replace them asap!?! This would make it sooner rather thatn later... !!
In fact recommendations would be welcome for a new set!

My mate mate had jam ex corsa springs, i swear thety were made of granite
Clio MK 4
being so cheap they might be the apex springs of coilovers. will be interested in the review.
Can you do me a favour? If you get time can you take pics of them on highest and lowest settings front and back please? Also comments on ease of fitment and if you needed to do anything to them.
Mine are looking like arriving the back end of next week.
Yeah, not a problem. Bondie should be her in just over an hour.
My review is in the ebay section.
Reality is these are Austrian made TUV approved coilovers for £165 delivered.
Worst case scenario if the internals fail in 2 years i will fit some Koni inserts, the bodies themselves are worth alot more than what your paying!!.
Love the sceptics on here, usually because theyve paid alot more for their coilovers!!

In your pic is that the rear settled? im thinking of getting some for my car but i would want the rear lower :dapprove:
No that was literally taken when all 4 wheels hit the deck, car has settled another inch, will be raising it up tomorrow as i want it to be driveable and i hate reverse rake!

Done a bit of research from the Austrian TUV paperwork,
Led me to Racelands website.
Now those coilovers look identical to my ones right down to the 3 C spanners....
I would also hazard a guess that the Clio B RS ones are not listed because they are perhaps a brand new fitment, lots of the coilovers listed are brand new products on that website.
