Hallo all,

I would  like to request for your advise  on Heavy  duty springs.

I imported a used 2010 i30 from UK to Africa. Our roads  here are in deplorable state that a low car always  getting "injured on the underbelly ". I changed  springs  to KYB rear and LESJĂ–FORS front Coil Spring but the ride is still too low for our roads. 

Any recommendations for Heavy  duty  coil  springs?

Thanks  in advance

Heavy duty springs still wont help much I dont think, the ride height would still be similar with a more uncomfortable ride.

Polyurethane spring spacers or extended springs might be more suitable, some here for the rear :link: EXTREME Lifting Rear Springs - Various Applications - Shark Racing

For the front maybe some springs off a diesel,  is your's is petrol or diesel ? if petrol try diesel front springs...or buy a taller car (fit for purpose) :wink:

Hi,

Thank you for the reply.

Let me look at the options you have listed. Off course the buying a "taller car" is off the list :) :)
