#1: Suspension set-ups Author: MattP182, Location: Spalding, Lincolnshire PostPosted: Wed Oct 24, 2012 7:35 am

Hey all, sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, but i just need other peoples advice, currently i've some money set aside for my car and im looking at a good suspension setup for my car, its at standard height atm..wich is rubbish.. im looking to lower it around 40mm all-round 'i dont really like the whole nose down a**e up look it has. but i still want to be able to get over speedbumps :S

I've read all the indepth guides to suspension on here and somewhere it says that 'Bilstein Shocks and Eibach springs' are most popular, is it fine mixing the brands like this? from looking at the guides il need new springs for the front, shock absorbers for the front, and dampers for the back?

what i suppose im really asking is do you think its better value for money buying these things seperatly? or going on demon tweeks and buying say a 'Gmax Suspension kit' for £223.07 ? like this: www.demon-tweeks.co.uk...owers-40mm


I appreciate any help! thankyou! Smile

Don't buy cheap suspension, I did and the dampers already have surface corrosion in 10 months from new. I wish I'd have saved longer and bought Eibach/Bilstein in the first place. By the way, those two brands are perfectly matched for each other

Bilsteins never corrode...honest. Mine wont anyway because they are never leaving the garage. Not this time anyway.
By the way my new H&R and Bilstein Sprint set up is a little bit better than the old Eibach Pro Kit and Bilstein Sport set up.
