I bought these about two years ago at a great cost, again with lack of time and so much on I have decided to sell.

It's a brand new coil over kit, all adjustable.

I gave around £1000 for it, would take £600, comes with everything required to fit. Still in the box, I will get some photos in the morning.

A bit of info on this site.

I would have these but I think they would be too long for the dimma and not allow me to go low enough

Couple of questions Carl:

Do you have any idea what the spring rate is? If not, are there any markings on the springs so I can do a bit of googling/phoning around?

Is the compression damping adjustable independently of the rebound? I've had a look at the link; it's not all that clear!

That silver thing in the box; I guess that's the upper spring cap. I can see only one. Presumably there's another?

Do you know if there are any restrictions on ride height? I would probably aim to run at or very near standard height, and am worried that if this requires a lot of preload, the springs might become coilbound.

Thanks,
Charlie

Would it not be better answering these sort of questions on the thread to save people having to ask again?
