Ride Height Advise - Pic

[iyrix]

Hey All,

Im looking for a fast road setup, i've fitted some coilovers and the handling is a lot better, im wondering if it should be slightly lower at the back or all round.  Or maybe not at all.  Anyone got any good advice before i change it again.




Thanks
Graham

For driving - leave it.
For posing - slam it.

take it out for a drive. go over some speedbumps. go round some corners at speed. keep lowering by 10mm till you rub the arches or your sump jits a speed bump. then raise by 20mm

lol - cheers guys.  This needs to be set up so it handles really well. :-)

Don't go too low then and make sure you get the suspension geometry set up properly once you've finished fettling with the ride height.

For good balance and driving you'll want the wishbones set level. The back go by this.

                             Reduce understeer    Reduce oversteer


Front height            lower front end         raise front end
 

Rear height             raise rear end           lower rear end

Khare bear how do you get oversteer on a FWD car?
Its virtually impossible on normal road conditions!

No idea, but last night going round a roundabout in the wet at normal speed I got a handful of it.
