Thinking spax more as i can change hight and damping?

What do you think.

Prices?

I have Weitecs and they are brill. only 2wd tho.

depending on the price I would go Spax because of the stuff you can do but......... are you of a good mech mind? do you know what you are doing when it comes to tuning suspension? if not Id just go for ones that are ready for you.

Simple option might be better.

again all down to price too.

x2,

havin had the spax rsx before and now havin the weitec's i would go with those unless your goin to be trackin/racin the car then thats different as you can fine tune the spax although ive found the handlin and cornering with the weitec kit fantastic :thumbup:

So the adjustment of bump and rebound damping on the spax would be somthing like full open for a hard ride not very comfy to full closed for the ride to like having a bar welded in as your shock lol.
