Title: Best coilovers that go low
Post by: krisbutler02 on January 14, 2013, 01:10:21 pm

I currently have Bilstein PSS16's on my golf but want the fronts to go lower.

Just wondering what's the best coil-overs that have allot of adjustment?

Fk highsports go lower but i would stick with the bilsteins. They will handle and ride much better and it looks plenty low enough for me!!  :drinking:
