JOM
« on: 01 January 2012, 12:47 »
just been looking at some vw specialists and JOM seem to come up a bit but are they any good i know the parts are coming direct from Germany.

For instance coilovers from spax £300 - £400 whereas JOM £200 - £300?

They are not a rep of anything they are just cheap.. Cheap build quality.. Bumpy ride.. Adjusters seize easy if not looked after.. Spax, bilstein, weitec are expensive because of build quality and the face most can be damper adjusted

JOM is ok if your on a budget and impatient  :grin: but its deffo worth saving a little more for better quality. i wiouldnt go as far as to say its rubbish but just cheap but there is worse out there for sure.
