CoilOvers - best brand?

[6N2 GTI 00]

Hi Everyone,

I am currently looking into getting a set of Coilovers but can not decide which brand to go for. There are a set on Ebay from Belgium for £200 which seems reasonable but I dont have any guarntee's on quality.

Could anybody help me out in terms of which are the best value for money etc. I would like to have a high quality set that are going to last.

Cheers

I am looking for this answer too, but including height and ride adjustable. I had thoughts in my mind about D2-racing for 1000$

I have had FK Highsports for 2.5 years. Im happy with them

Cheers fella's.

I just wanted to get an idea because there are so many to choose from. I am not looking for the best on the market, just a good brand for a good price. How much would you expect a garage to charge for fitment?

I would attempt it myself but I could really do without the hassel, least if I get it done at a respectable garage it will be done right.

Those D2 coilovers are supposed to be quite harsh and for track use really.

Eibach stuff is very good too, partly because their stuff is made by KW.

So Eibach or KW is the best stuff you can get, but expect to pay a lot if you want the best stuff

puh, I ordered those D2 but the shipping appeared 2 months and i canceled it. Now i am glad i canceled it
So ive choosed Witec Hicom TX which is the same as KW variant 2, just its not made with stainless steel as KW.
i am not sure if its true ?

id go for budget eBay ones (TA TEchnix, HotTuning whatever you want to call them), Weitec Hi-Cons or KW Variants.

Obviously Cheap to expensive there, just deends on how much you want to spend.

KW. 'Nuff said

[stani540]

kw if you can afford it if not go for AP as there abotu 300 quid and a good budget option and come out of kw's factory

Thanks everyone

Trying to save as much as I can at the moment.
KW sounds like a good option, decent price as well.

Cheers

Delivered
It is Same as KW

KW and Weitec are not the same. Had both, KW is more comfy

im in the same predicament...

My mate at work got a pair of hot tuning budget coilovers for £200 and he said they do not perform that well. The ride is very stiff and bumpy at the same time - he wishes he had purchased some more exspensive ones. But again, you get what you pay for.

I'm considering KW Variant 2's, but i dont even know if im going to benefit from the performance ? I live in the sticks and my road driving mainly consists of twisty country roads and small towns... So i will definately need something with adjustable damper!

has anyone purchased coilies for around the £600 mark ?
