whats your budget mate?
£310-340 ish (sorry cant remember) buys you a bilstein B10 kit 60mm front, 40mm back and they are nice kinda like the cheap end of good suspension with that kit...worth the extra cash IMO!
Dave A should be of help mate, know he is busy at the moment though

i have gmax on mine (car came with them on) all i can say is it is very bumpy, every one who gets in moans and says i should put it back to standard
but who cares what the ride is like as long as it looks good

i'd rahter have a car that handles great rather than looking good.
or why not make a compromise and have a great looking car that handles well?

I have gmax on the gsi. ALOT better then standard. However the ride is a bit hard and a little noisy. But nothing ott. Had spax coilovers before and they were about the same.
Havent used any "good" kits so cant comment but for what I paid I am happy
Drives supercharged Tec with torque

Monster had gmax on his and it handled fine, ride quality is going to be shit if your lowering your car whatever kit you buy.

Quality of the springs and shocks is good for the money. My problem with them was they lowered my car twice as much as what they were supposed to.

Even the Spax kits would be a good bet!...
My Gmax rears make squelchy noises under compression...its really not happy!
I've got a Bilstein B8 kit and Spax 50mm springs on my new one!
