Just wondering what everyones opinions are suspension wise. Obviously higher poundage springs but on coilovers or shocks and springs? had both but always prefered coilovers but is there any sets available that dont feel like the strut tops are about to give way every time you hit a slight hole/rise in the road?

I would say a matched spring and shock combo.

Or coilovers with adjustable dampening.

bilstein shocks and spring are supposed to be good are they not,but the good ones are pricey and usually come with 40mm springs.what about gaz coilys? there expensive but are they more comfortable than say fk's or spax?

Speak to Mark (broster) he sorted me out with a custom poundage set up of Bilstein B10's which were awesome.
