Seems my standard rubber top mounts aren't up to handling the lows with the air ride and they're stretching and not sitting properly. Need to get them sorted before MOT so thinking I'll upgrade to some solid ones from the likes of compbrake. They any good? Thinking more towards the concentric ones (non adjustable) as I don't think I really wanna be cutting my turrets up, unless the adjustable ones are really worth the hassle. So, what are your experiences like with them?

I had adjustable ones and they were perfect.. Heard you can fit them upside down and you don't have to cut your turret but they still work perfect.

Ah right, so fitting the adjustable ones upside down doesn't cause any undesirable effects? May shell out the extra for them then if you don't have to cut up the turret like that. They easy enough to get set up? Basically just wanna get rid of the mad camber where the rubber ones have stretched inward and improve the steering a bit.

Yeah really easy to set, just turn them to where you want and put the bolts in.

Bought mine from there and no problems at all, only issue was needed a spacer for the top of the strut as these are thinner than standard top mounts
