Thoughts on these coilovers

[Skinner33]

What do people think of these was looking to purchase them as they seem a not bad price.

Why is this? We deal with FK & JOM and if I were to buy a 'budget' kit I know which I'd rather buy...

[GeeVRSman]

i have had FK and jom in the past i found them very crashy on both mk2 gold and Audi a4. I will be buying my 4th set of JOMs if i end up buying coilovers for the octy. i had a set of FKs crack on me with the audi which is not good.

Joms have a 3 year warranty i think as well. Damien at DPM sorts me out each time so give the man a tinkle!

Edit. i do not rate FK any more.. they are the chavs fav for car parts. The bond in there lights melted on my bora last summer and i had to re bond them. yet another popular company gone after the profit over the quality.

AP coilovers are supposed to be good:

I have AP Coilovers on my passat and there not a bad ride at all. Ah well Maybe have to try the JOM,S then

[JonnySherco]

I've had joms on my Fabia for about 3 months now spot on can't fault them and with a long warranty.

I was told they were better than FK

[Skinner33]

Gutted phoned damien today and the JOM one's do not fit the VRS :sweat: He says i would have to go with the AP ones as they are the next cheapest ones to buy at £448
