i'm new to the forum, so first of all hi to every1

i'm planning to buy a new suspension for my corsa b. there's a choice between eibach springs+spax psx dampers & a full set of spax psx (springs+dampers). which springs are better? anyone tried spax?

i know eibach and it's a good spring, but i'm thinking of getting a full set of springs/dampers (spax psx). spax is a bit lower than eibach (10mm), but it's not that important. can anyone help?

I have the Spax VSX dampers on Apex springs dropped 60mm defo go wit 60mm drop looks good an handles like a dream. However not sure how much difference 10mm would make. I'm happy with Spax but eibach are good too

what charachteristics do your spax dampers have? are they very hard? i was also thinking of getting a fixed rate dampers (spax vsx) and eibach springs (-30mm).

i can get eibach here, no problem. although i'm afraid it's performance doesn't even come close to spax psx shox.. assuming we were talking about the same thing: i don't want coil overs, i need plain shox and springs.
oh, one more thing: my question was which springs should i get

i already made my mind up: i chose spax psx shox. the only thing left is: which springs would perform well with these shox? eibach or spax?
