Hi All,
I'm thinking of lowering the front in my 206,and I have seen many of you guys use different brands for that job,some of you use FK,or Spax,..etc.

So I was wondering which is the BEST brand for lowering springs to be fitted to the 206??

Some of you are well experinced in this job,and know much about it,which is good,which is bad,so please advice me Smile

Thanx,
Tim

I have yet to lower my car but from reading various topics and getting advice i have been recomended Eibach. After reading some topics on them they seem to lower the car and improve handling but without giving you a crashy ride like some of the cheaper make springs tend to give. The age old saying applies you get what you pay for.

I am told spax are very hard. Maybe they are better for handling at the loss of comfort?

Thank you so much for the reply guys :),well from what I read,I don't want to lose the comfort ride for better handling,so I will forget about the Spax set I spotted in here,and look for Eibach one,I don't wanna lower it much,just 40mm,so anyone got an Eibach lowering springs for sale??or should I buy them fromt the link above ?
