hearsay from those on the minimania forum say they aren't much chop. Something about not enough spring rate, more wank and bling willy style ect.. |

I had a thought that those big rubber cones might have more support that a spring. What about the spring over shocks?http://www.minimania.com/web/Item/CK17/AddedFrom/CatBrowse%2D%20SUSPENSION/InvDetail.cfm Would these make that big a difference for the price? |

Oh hehe ![]() Well rubber has proven itself to be very sufficient.. if it wasn't, nobody would be running rubber suspension anymore ![]() |

![]() Unless i'm mistaken, there was talk in the A/C thread about extending the budget... and...unless you have alot of excess $$$$$$$$$$ they are not worth it. There is nothing wrong with the way a rubber coned mini handles on a good set of shocks and possibly a rear swaybay with some good tires. |

willy said basically the same thing. rubber cone is fine. Spend your money on A/C ![]() |

So basically if you have money to burn on bling suspension gear its more a pissing contest that an improved car. The a/c question was another thread. |

Its not totally useless... just the money could be better spent in other areas... making the motor go faster/be more reliable, and of course making the car stop better once the motor is faster. ![]() If you have oodles of cash... do it ![]() |

I'd agree with that ![]() Yes, but you did say you were trying to stretch the budget to include A/C and if buying bling suspension it would detract from that budget would it not? willy who refuses to believe anything so pretty could be so useless ![]() ![]() |
