    question is, which ones?

    Ideally i want a set of good quality but that dont break the bank. What does everybody use/ recomend?

    I hear the FK ones are quite cheap, but not bad quality.

    I think theres different fk models also, iirc my bro has highsports on his vw and they has been faultless and handles a lot better than on cheapo ones. Ill have a look into prices for them. Also willy and valver ones are different so if i ever went widetrack id have to buy some more!

    I have the FK Highsport SS Coilovers and had to grind away some of my hubs in order to get the correct camber adjustment as before I did this the wheels must have had about -10 of camber . Go for something other than FK's unless u are handy with a grinder! The FK's for willy's are fine though....a straight swap.
