Just got some FK Highsport coilovers and put em on. Back looks and front still needs to come down more, but seeing how it beds.

Neil, what's the ride quality like on the FK kit?
I have Koni coilovers and it's superb, was just wondering because the FK kit is considerably better value.

what size are the alloys? Im guessing 17's but they dont look that big.
Also what apex kit did u have? i have -40mm and am considering an FK coilover kit.
final Q, did u need spacers to clear the coilover strut?

Yes, 3mm spacers and a bit of camber.

im not worried about width too much, i will be having psg wide archs, and my current wheels are ET45 7.5 x 16's and they dont rub anymore...
after a lot of cutting and bending!
