Re: 'Minty' S Build.
hi mate im looking to get coilovers for mine, whats the ride like on these, i was thinking about going for the FK ones that have the adjustable dampening.. whats your opinion? Alex
Re: 'Minty' S Build.
love what u hav done 2 the car mate nd love the colour white FTW if you dont mind me asking how wide do you think i can go at the rear nd the front wheels before they start to make noise (rub)??
Re: 'Minty' S Build.
I am interested in these coilovers but the price is scary. They are like 4 times cheaper then some brand name ones.moojuicepez wrote:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/COILOVER-VW-P ... 3a6cbdf541
Can i hope that they wont fall apart on the road? )) Whats your experience with them?
Re: 'Minty' S Build.
i want it slightly lowered (25-40mm). I do realize it will be a harder drive but i just dont want it be super hard =)
Re: 'Minty' S Build.
I was originally thinking springs but h&r (thats the most popular, right?) spring cost more then those coilovers and coilovers seem to be better all around solution.
But what will give most comfortable ride?

Re: 'Minty' S Build.
Which one of the two you would suggest (HR or Eibach)?
Re: 'Minty' S Build.
Just realized i am seriously derailing thread as usual xD
Anyhow. My local spings dealer is confusing me.
Thats what i understood from him.
1. To lower your car you can buy springs or shock Absorbers (dampers?) or coilovers
His springs cost like $200, Shock absorbers are like $500 and coilovers are like $800
2. HOWEVER if you buy springs which lower your car more then 30mm (which rear springs do) you ALSO need to replace shock absorbers (dampers)
3. Coilovers is best of all 3 as far as i understood
but again... i am really confused.
So i guess i should just buy same coilovers as u did and save some money or wut =)
