Title: anybody no these coilys?
Post by: stainesy on 16 January 2011, 13:29
fitted brand new coilys i got for a good price from a bloke from germany few months back.
they seem pretty good compared to coilys iv had in the past.

just wondered if they was a known brand or not.

anybody heard of these?

I know a lad who used the shocks and springs kit and Ive just fitted shocks.

 They seem to be cheap and unbranded but have surprisingly good ride quality. Infact, Im really surprised at the quality.

yeah i only payed £170 for the full coilover set so i was expecting them to feel like a cheap set but when i opened the box i was so suprised with the quality of them. very well made and seem great on my car.
iv never heard of them before but i may use them again in the future if i can find them.

They're Hottuning coilovers, i've got them on mine. They're ok for the money, the ride can be very harsh at times but overall not too bad  :smiley:

They are hottuning, I would never use them again, some seem to have problems with them only lasting a short space of time.

They are the earlier hottuning coilovers. Which from reviews on here are better than the ones they now sell which are unbranded and cheaper.

Agree with this. So much difference between these and a decent set.
