They were on sale not long ago reduced from 500 to 279.00thibk it was the main FK site

Had some fk sport edition plus 2 years ago. Cost me 460. Shocks had gone within 12 months. I definitely didn't think they were worth the money

My brothers got kw variant 2 on his fiesta st dont know how long theyve been on the car or the millage done but the thing is like a rally car you almost cant tell your cornering its on rails think they set the previous owner back around 1K i think you get what you pay for really with suspension

Many people run Fk without probs sounds like you were unlucky chief 2 yr warranty with FK coils surely u got a return or replacement?

They said they stopped doing them haha. Bought some joms as a cheap replacement.

Wish I had the money for kw! This car is too costly.

KW is Epic but as said to a lot of people 1 grand on suspension is a lot of cash!  The Fk Highsport and Silverline range get great reviews from various forums as rich says you pay for what you get

get the cheapest you can find. ive had them on all 3 of my mk4's and 2 of my BMW's ranging from eibach, weitec, hotuning, FK,and jamex

and i found all of them are the same except for the jamex as they were extremely bad.

My view on weitec vs jom as ive had both

Joms: corrode quite easily if not looked after, ALOT CHEAPER THAN WEITECS, softer/bouncier ride than W's and no tab for r32 arb

Weitecs: again corrode badly if not looked after, expensive, very harsh ride, does have tab for arb, and dont look cheap like the joms

My personal opinion is that i wasted £400 on them when my joms were perfectly fine !

Go for joms you get a lengthy warranty just make sure you grease the ballbags out of them

You will get brand new AP Coilovers for 400 and they are 3 times better than joms. The cheap coilovers are horrific, even more so when very low.
