Hi Guys and girls!

I want to get some aftermarket springs for my cabrio but not sure which ones to get as apparently according to my dealer the cabrio has completely diff suspension to the hard top?

Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi Soph,

First stop for me would be the braces rather than springs... check out Rolands post in this forum with details of his three braces... just my opinion!

What are you looking to achieve with the aftermarket springs? lowering, stiffness?

The JCW suspension is not available on the Convertible, and yes it is diiferent to the hardtop - mainly due to the extra weight it has to cope with.

Leda do a suspension setup that will work with the Convertible...

Hope that helps..

Jon
