Choose Bilstein B14 part 47-286832 for the listed Renault Clio IV 1.6 RS and RS Trophy applications when you want adjustable ride height with fixed, vehicle-specific damping. The lowering range depends on the original chassis: the RS and RS Cup sports suspension start from different factory heights.
Ride height and lowering range
RS chassis
- Front lowering: Approximately 20–40 mm
- Rear lowering: Approximately 20–40 mm
Conditions: 1.6 RS; manufacturer certificate conditions apply.
RS Cup sports chassis
- Front lowering: Approximately 5–25 mm
- Rear lowering: Approximately 5–25 mm
Conditions: 1.6 RS / RS Trophy with the specified sports chassis; confirm original suspension.
The figures are reductions from the relevant original suspension, not an absolute ground-clearance measurement. Do not apply the larger RS lowering figure to a car already fitted with the RS Cup sports chassis.
