Ride Height

What ride height are people running?

I had nitrons fitted and the front end is now lower and causing me issues, lost the front plate a couple of times recently so having to drive like Miss Daisy unless the road is like a snooker table

TIA

I run mine at about 108 and 115, it was actually set to give 102mm at the front edge of the splitter, speed bumps are “supposed” to be 100mm max, therefore my splitter should always clear, in the event of it hitting a speed bump, I report it as being incorrect to the local council. They have reprofiled 3 for me now :slight_smile:

Blimey ade, you have some faith in the ability of the road gang working to those tolerences :crazy:

They are only builders y’know, the stringline they use is thicker than that :wink:

I bet they love you fella :clap:

123/128 just about cleared everything and didn’t prove a disadvantage on track. Lower would have caused issues getting over the slight incline onto my drive, getting on my trailer and getting over some local speed bumps (private road don’t you know).

130/130 for me. Just gets over the speed bumps. Poshest village in a Derbyshire trumps Jonny’s private road. Shame I do not have a posh house.

My town starts with the word Royal thank you Kieth :smiley:

Royal Brum?

When i had my Nitrons on my last Exige they were ,115 120 I used to catch on a few speed bumps. Current Ohlins wont go any lower than 120 and i think they wont adjust lower than 125 in-practise. I found myself to be equally as slow on both ride height settings.

Factory does not advise anything lower than 120 on the front. You start to run out of ball joint movement on the front uppers if you go lower then that. That doesnt meanto say you cant lower it more than that.

If you want to lower it properly then buy the 2-11 suspension components.

Pity the town next to yours starts with the word “Winson” :wink:

:imp: How dare the both of you! :laughing:

Where are you taking the measurements from?

Mine has big holes in the back of the headlamps, think I may be too low :stuck_out_tongue:

So does mine, measured it this morning

Front splitter 100 mm
Front 110 mm
Rear 120 mm

That’s far too low Adrian. Did you set it up yourself? 125/130 is where you want to be.

Holes in the inner with 130/130 and Nitron track springs. I think it is normal. I have stuck a thick plastic bag over the holes on the inside with gaffer tape. Quality repair.
