KW or Weitec Susp Kit for an LCR

[JamJay]

Do the rear wheels push forwards when lowered on coiloves like they do with a shock/spring package?

 

[Willie]

Yup it's not the suspension type that's the problem its the way the rear end is

 

[JamJay]

You mean that damn rear beam

Any pics of -50mm (-30mm LCR) from the side?

 

[Rocky Rocastle]

yes Philc, he's got weitec 50mm, whilst it's an LC it has 18's and the LCR kit so will give a very good idea, i think it looks really good and i'm glad i went down that route

Mines about 50mm at the back in my signature, not sure if thats what you mean?

im about to undergo buying the weitecs.... fitting looks a bit involved did anyone pay to have them fitted??? what did it roughly cost???

 

[DamianPM]

Fitting will usually cost between £100 and £200 depending on where you go but it is just basically a straight suspension swap except they'll need to set the height up as well.

i think il go weitec shocks and some 40mm springs fit the rears myself and get the specialist's to do the front.
30mm not enough and the 50mm to much.

 

[DamianPM]

What about the KW 40mm kit then?

I need to do this soon and that KW kit loks good!

 

[skahigh]

The KW kit is very good, I've had it on for a few months now. The main differences I have noticed are slightly more rebound than standard so you notice a slight bouncing down the road feel on bumps and MUCH better road holding, the car feels much more planted on high speed sweeping bends and gives alot more confidence that its not going arse out any second.

The height is good as I don't really hit speed bumps anymore than I used to. Had four people and luggage in the car on the way to the V festival last weekend and the rear wheels were well into the arches, don't think I'd want to go any lower.

 

[nicksxjr]

fitted kw's now
well impressed! rides much better!
now want a rear arb!
Damian why cant i get just eibach rear???

 

[DamianPM]

Glad to hear it.

Eibach only sell the bars in a kit or just the front, we only have Whiteline who sell the rear alone.

hi, when lowering 20mm to 30mm on a lcr do u need a different ARB or can you stick with standard and if so would i need to change the droplinks? thanks

 

[DamianPM]

On an LCR you should be fine with the standard one.
