Hi everyone.

 

Has anyone had any experience with APEX RDX Coilovers? Trying to decide on new coilovers for my MK1 vRS and I can get these for decent money through work. My only concern is there doesn't seem to be a lot of information or reviews of them.

 

From what I've gathered the height is adjusted separately from the spring pre-load therefore retaining full damper travel and maintaining comfort.

 

Picture for reference...

 

 

I'm looking for something that will give me plenty of lows but also be fairly comfortable.

 

Cheers,

price? eurocarparts by any chance?

Price I cannot say but it is reasonable. And yes good old Euro Car Parts

lol huddersfield branch lost all staff discounts lol poop :p

Ohhhhh dear, someone abusing the system then? lol

 

Ever had any dealings with the Apex coilovers? We sell loads of the spring kits but never had anyone buy the coilovers lol

the coilovers are good the springs just cheap but ok

Have a set of these ordered in for Wednesday so I'll have them in for MOT test on Saturday and I'll let you all know what I think of them

 

Should be good enough as they seem to get decent reviews and there's a 2 year warranty on them

keep me informed got a mate who works at another branch lol 

Wasn't expecting them to arrive until tomorrow but here they are!

 

 

 

Really impressed with the quality. Height adjustable separate from spring preload so they retain full damper travel even when low, so they should be pretty comfortable.

 

Come with drop links and all!

 

I'll have them fitted some night during the week here with Polybush top mounts so I'll keep you all posted on first impressions and do a proper review after a month or so

 

Cheers,

they look a nice bit of kit  

Be worth coating the shock bodies and threads also with a good grease as Ive seen them rust (not this brand but coilovers in general)

Yeah they will be getting plastered in copper grease so they don't seize lol

Well got these fitted last night and they are fantastic!!!

 

Go stupidly low and are very comfortable! Would recommend them to anyone and can't believe more people don't use them.

 

 

Had to raise it a good 40mm just to get it off the ramp! 

 

So if you are looking a decent coilover that goes low and rides well but don't want to spend more than £500 definitely consider these.

What part number where these so I can order a set

ordered

is a cracking idea how the shocker moves into the strut and locks in 

Yeah its a great idea and means you can still have full damper travel even when it's lowered so it's comfier

they do look cool but thinking of not keeping em and staying on the h and r springs ans stock rims now
