Any reason why you are choosing them over something else?I'd probably save a little more and go for the proven KW v2s for £950 or less and go B8/eibach. Or spend a lot more and go AST Sportline 1. But I am an AST freak.  ________________________________________ Nothing to see here |

And softer steel tube for a touch more compliance    ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Dunno - you'd be better off asking me to ask him when you are ready for them... Shouldn't be too much for just the rears as they are used on quite a few cars iirc.________________________________________ Nothing to see here |
