    Coilovers

    I think this is going to be my next investment on payday this month.

    Either that or a full stainless system including s/s manifold. Im not fully decided however.

    Im just wondering people can recommend any particular brand, seen as there are so many to choose from.
    Im leaning towards AVOs but there are so many.
    Which are the best value for money? Most reliable?

    Im probably gonna spend upto £500 and im not too bothered in the £800 ones which allow you to adjust the rebound and bump all in one etc...I just want to be able to adjust the height.

    Thanks In Advance

    Mike

    yeah but ledas are extortionate price wise arent they...?

    the guy at balance motorsport reckons that gaz ones are just as good but for a fraction of the price of ledas...

    and as for the FK lot....wtf are you supposed to do with so many to choose from: theres the silverline x kit, silverline, konig-sport, high-sport??
