What do people think of Gmax suspension as a cheap option?

I am thinking of getting a Gmax -60mm suspension kit as a temporary measure until I can afford coilovers.

Opinions?

A lot of people slag them off, but I never had any problems with them when I had a set on my old B.

Pretty good value imo.

I have got some springs already just the standard shocks are like a water bed and need some new ones really. I want either coilovers or dampening adjustable shocks but can't afford at the moment

I had the -60mm Gmax kit on my Corsa B for years and never had any problems or complaints about it. A good budget kit imo.

I've got the 40mm kit on mine at the moment, am wanting it 60 though.. do I just need to swap the 40mm springs for the 60?

spax is a far better budget option. Ive replaced loads of gmax kits that have failed in one way or another.
