Ok need to lower my car as soon as i get my alloys but what to do?

I want to keep the soft ride and i dont want to feel every bump i go over, so i was thinking i need to buy a whole new suspension set. I dont mind the extra cost as long as it will give me a better ride,

Problem im having is ive looked on PVD site and a few others and i cant find a company that is selling a whole spring and damper set?

Maybe they do just the sites havent been updated?

Also what makes best going for

Koni?
Gmax?
SPAX?


Thanks in Advance

not a bad price, that includes fitting as well. From what im told the suspension is very good the ride is alot firmer (without being to firm) and it wont invalidate the 3 year warrenty vauxhall provides.
