AP coilovers seem to be popular
-
AP on my R32 decent coilover for the money not to harsh just a bit firmer than standard. i would recommend :happy2:
-
I have just put some fk streets on my gti and to be honest cant fault them one bit to be honest it's a better ride than the standard shocks and for £189 couldn't believe the quality so happy days really
-
When you say "better ride" do you mean more comfortable or better handling?
-
I have had kw v1 on my car for 3years with no problems at all and they still look like new
-
My first thought reading the original post is why do you need coilovers?
IMO better to buy a top end spring/damper suspension kit than a low to mid range set of coilovers and if your not going to do trackdays then IMO coilovers are way more than what you need.
