Currently run bilstein streetline kit and is fucking awfull, rock fucking hard doesnt handle that great still rolls quite a bit is very crashy and the shocks rattle and make a hell of a lot of noise for a car component up untill now i never knew made a sound

I have no idea how much i wanna spend on it, its a pretty important part of the car, itll need springs with a higher poundage rate as im having a bigger engine fitted in 2 months time, can be coilovers or just shox n springs. Catalougues ive looked through only seem to list FK and the ones i fancy are the bilstein pss kit (£1k) which i think is a little more than i wanna spend lol

Any suggestions? Do bilstein just do a regualr shox n springs kit which isnt crashy noise and handles well? Im running 17"s and heavy v6 bakes up front.

sorry for essay any ideas?

Jambo how low do you want to run it? Adjustable coilovers is the only way really. MASSIVE improvement over regular style.
