coilovers?

Post by brad mole »

which coilovers would people reccomend, i have been looking at the fk highsports (£395) and the fk silverlines (£475), would you say the silverlines are worth the extra £80 because the only real difference i think is that they are stainless steel instead of zinc plated on the highsports. also when lowering are there any other issues as ive heard the arbs or something can be a problem? bearing in mind i plan on slamming it lol

i would recommend them if you can afford em!! You need shorter drop links and be careful cos if you wind em right to the bottom you have no suspension as you are on the bump stops if ya get me! 8)

ive just got a reply off them about the drop links and they said that the two kits i was looking at, non of them come with them so can anyone link me up with where to buy some from and which ones im looking for, i will probably be going for the silverlines now by the way, do i just need the coilovers and shortened drop links?
