Bro you need some wheel spacers. 20mm rear/15mm front.. I’m hoping that you have also fitted the shortened front link arms required to prevent forced camber 👍🏼🥱 obviously lol
Hi! I have a question about rear spring adjuster, you didnt put them on the back? Have same Fk setup, but it seems it wouldt not fit properly without adjuster.
Hi DFCT I appreciate this was a few years ago now but did you have to remove the lower control arm from the hub to remove the old shocks / fit the new coilovers? Currently having an issue sepeating the lower control arm from the hub but I may not need to. Thanks in advance
I did it without removing the lower control arm, it was very difficult but it is possible. Get a tool called a strut spreader or use a pry bar on the back of the hub.
@@dfct1775 Ah brilliant thanks for your response, ah a strut spreader I've seen that used in other videos but never said what it was. Thanks alot I've got a set of FK Automotive coilovers my 207 too, I've done the rears and intend to takle the fronts next week I'll let you know how I get on.
Hi! Damn it looks nice slammed! :) Well done! I'm looking at the same coilovers, cuz they are really cheap atm. Tell me honestly, how are you pleased with them so far? Are they bouncy? Currently I have mine dropped -55mm with h&r springs but It's not enough, plus the car feels really bouncy cuz I have stock shocks...Need to go lower asap! :D
They're not bouncy at all, just quite stiff. You can't adjust dampening with these though so if its too stiff you cant really do much. The car is totally flat around corners and grips even better than stock. Just a heads up, my rear is as low as possible but the front can still go a'lot lower
That's exactly what I'm looking for :) I'm glad they are on stiff not on soft and bouncy side... I mean as long as u are happy with them I will be just fine aswell I think. Tbh they are so cheap atm it's a steal..if anything isn't wrong with them! Do you have any cons. so far? Oh and almost forgot to ask did u get any warranty on them, because I can't find any data about that at the official site... :D
No cons for me, and where I live the roads are really clean so I'm not worried about the collars seizing or the springs rusting so I didn't really worry about a warranty. Plus they're cheap so I'd just go to better ones if they broke.
Hi guys I know this is a year old but this is just a tip on how to get extra lows. I'm from South Africa and we use fk coilovers all the time. To get those extra lows out of them we remove the front helper springs and either cut or remove the bumpstops completely in front and at the back. Do not install with adjuster just as you have no installed it and when we get to the show and park our cars we lift the car and remove the rear springs completely and turn the fronts all the way down. Car goes as low as air ride.
I haven't had that issue yet on the 207, but it could be coil bind if its happening at low speed. I had it on my BMW and it was this annoying kind of clock bonging sound when parking.
so what if he cut it? lmfao. its not a game to see who can spend the most on a car. He's saved himself roughly around 80-100 quid by doin that small adjustment. Now sit tf down lil kid
