Any one running these, or been in a vehicle with them on?  Looking at options for the vRS and a friend has the V maxx stage 1 fitted to his vRS estate diesel and has good things to say!

I have driven all sorts of cars with them fitted, and much like all of the other generic cheap stuff they have always been  :sick:

Nope, they are nowhere near the quality of the original parts you are planning on replacing.

Very poor customer service, warranty and support.   We used them for a few years then last year when we had issues with some poor quality shocks on a Caddy van they didnt want to help or cover the warranty even with the shocks less than 12months old. 

We ended up being being out of pocket when we refunded the customer to keep our repuation intact.
