supersport coilovers?

[stewarty.c]

hi every 1 i have just registered and was just curious what everyone thinks of the supersport coilovers? cause when i finally get my gti 8v was thinking of upgrading to these coilovers and lowering about 70mm or there abouts.

all thoughts would be great thanks stewarty.c

They're ok for the money, only thing is the ride is pretty harsh. My friends mainly have fk's which give a smoother ride,  and one has kw's which probably give the best ride. You get what you pay for at the end of the day, wouldn't say they're bad by any means, but if you're prepared to save a little more in the long run its probably worth it.

Whilst your changing the suspension it may be worth replacing the upper strut mounts and bearings, should'nt cost you much from GSF.

Therusterman is right, supersport is cheap suspension, if you have more money better buy something else, I recommend you KW, KONI, H&R, BILSTEIN, SPAX, KAW, WEITEC....these brands provide you high durability and superb driving

cheers lads it will be my 1st vw so i am basically a beginner again.
i usually stuck with vauxhalls so hoping the vw will sway me over.

I think il be goin for supersports when i get mine in the new year, mainly coz for the amount i use it I just want it to look nice. Ther roads round here feel like driving on cobbles with standards on most cars anyway so think il just be grinning and bearing it. If I could justify affording the koni's or weitecs i would but im struggling to.
