Hi all ,

Want to lower my 180 but struggling to find springs. I don't really want coilovers as I know the height I want so springs will do.

Anyone used this Apex before and know if they would these be a decent set ?

www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Peu...415bcac1be

Not sure if these would fit the 180 ?? ^^^ Also, would I need uprated dampers when lowering it 60mm ?

Thanks

Apex springs are usual known for being harsh. Not sure on pugs but I know on other cars (clios etc) they are. 60mm seems a lot too. 30mm might be better.

I have some brand new coilovers for sale in the for sale section, there may also be some springs from other users so it's worth a look.

Check out this item I found on eBay: pages.ebay.com/link/?n...58&alt=web

These are what I fitted and there good ! Rides nice , solid spring with a nice feel . Took a couple of months to settle down & they dropped by about 5mm.. do over all I'm 55mm lower . Pro sport dampers .

If it aint broke dont fix it !
