depends what you want to use it for really mate.

I ran AP's for a couple of years on mine and they were great for the money, running PSS10's now which are better but far more money :happy2:

AP's will be in the for sale section this weekend  :wink:

I run B14's on my Edition 30. It's fairly firm but the car is fully bushed and has uprated engine mounts which will stiffen it up.

I really rate them, they're a quality coilover. Going the Ring in a month so will see what they're like then.
