FK-AK for comfort

JOM for more stiffness

Reason of how why I know this, me and a friend on here (S-l-i-x) had coilovers fitted at the same time  :shocked: I went JOM, he went FK-AK. FK-AK is an improvement over stock and still retains comfort, at any point if you want to stiffen up, just lower the car  :laugh: I know shocking eh?

With the same drop the JOM's are a lot harsher, personally if its a daily and you want some improvement followed by comfort FK-AK is the way to go and for around £165 I couldn't fault them.

I went for JOMS...

By the look of your review I went for the wrong things..I wanted more comfort I went for R32 bushs.. poly dogbone mount new CV joints and JOMs (basically everything replaced)To be honest in the first few miles I was thinking this is a little too harsh but after around 500-1000miles its feels alot more settled.. maybe the shocks have lost there stiffness maybe it was the r32 bushs bedding in.But now it feels fine!

Mines not very low tho looks almost as the golf should look as standard.Doesn't have a modifed look.

So let me get this straigth we got the same wheels and same suspension. :huh:
