Get what you pay for I have found over the years. I'd stick to the main brands for something as important as suspension. Are the spring rates right? Are they certified? In some cases you might find stuff like that isnt legal

I'd say if they are cheap and you've never heard of them there is probably a reason why. |

They look the part but I would like to see the brake hose mounting kit they mention, I would be careful with making sure that it holds the hose in the proper position and securely too. I have never heard of them must be a US only thing I guess |

Ok just done a search,they seem to do kits for a wide range of cars.There seems to be alot of people riding on these in the states and no ones really had anything bad to say about them with one guy saying their the best hes ever tried due to their not alot harder than OE suspension. For just over £300 maybe their worth a go... |

Paul here... Not worth the risk IMO. I tried fitting SRBs G force coilovers and they were terrible on the road. To the point they were dangerous. I had them on for a day, removed them and sent them back...losing about £120 :rolleyes: Went back to Tein superstreets Fantastic suspension IMO. You'll need at least superstreets to keep up next year Jay

Been looking at AST's but they cost a bloody fortune. Jap performance parts have plenty of nearly new sets of coilovers in stock but coming from jap import cars they will be to hard for everyday use... Paul the competition hots up everyday... :lol:

Can you not find a set of Prodrive ones on Scoobynet? They are brilliant for UK roads. Other than that I would go for Bilstien. Jap stuff is nearly always too hard for our shit roads. |

The car has prodrive suspension already fitted but i want to beef it up a little a compromise between road and some track use. |
