My Ride: Mini Cooper
After a few years of driving on the stock spings.
I have found a item in HK that will make the car better on cornering so I made the mod today and the ride feels much better and better handling too, less rolll now..
Now going around corner is 100% better than before.
you guys saying why not change the spings???
well were I live I have a big bump so if I lower my car by 1.5cm it will hit the ground every time I park it near my house.
that is why I have got this item which is a rubber to fit into the oem springs and make it harder and protects the shock and the spring for a longer life span.
I know that change spings will be much better but if you are like me, the roads are bad and ruff and you do not what to voild the warranty then this is for you.
it dose not cost much at all.
If you what to get 1 set of 4 rubber please PM me.
this photo is jacked up, when the car is down the spring will fit into the gap.

pin - interesting...what is the compresion rate of those spring spacers? I'm assuming they are not overly solid or you would be seriously limiting your spring action?

so it still keep the funtion on the springs, the spring use uses less force so less ware on them too.
