mk2 suspension woes

Post by mk2keel »

What brands does everyone use for performance shocks and springs, i am looking for a 60mm drop but dont know where to get the shocks and springs to do it.
I want a good quality company who's kits will last but also keep the suspension nice and rigid.

Any help would be very greatly appreciated.

Hi

Is yours lowered 60mm or just 40?
I am not that bothered about comfort, i want more performance but comfort is a bonus. I am looking for a 60mm kit bit i want as stiffer shock as i can to avoid scrubbage. Are GMAX any good in the respect?

OK, so u recon the GMAX shocks are pretty decent, ok thanks mate.
You can see what i mean though, i just dont want to have scrubbage on 60mm drop so tough shocks are imperative.

doubt i will be able to make 9th of oct im afraid
