Title: coilovers or spring and shock kits?
Post by: martin-gti on 25 January 2010, 21:06

hi there, im getting some 18's on friday so will need to lower the car as it will look like a monster truck!

Ive read coilovers are the best to go for for handling and all that but what i wanna know is will it ruin the ride and make it too hard? or shall i just go for an uprated shock and spring kit??

thanks

martin  :laugh:
