Technical a Apexi kit, or cheap coilovers ?

[vatza]

Guyes, my front struts have died, so i am on my way on buying a whole new kit. I don't have a lot of money so i found Apexi struts and springs for 260GBP, or , TA technik coilovers for 340 GBP. So, what would be your choice in my position, which one is the better suspension kit for allround use ?

Nobody has opinion on that ?

I'd go for struts and springs, cheap coil overs don't tend to be very good.

As the man says. Monroe Reflex (Halfords, etc.) are a reasonable price, much better quality than OE. You can lower (with springs) up to 35mm or so.

Cheep and suspention dont mix....

 

[vatza]

Yea sure that it don't mix. But, when you are on somebody's else position with not enough cash, it is a way of compromise. So, what i have stopped at is the Apexi kit (struts+spings) for a 260GBP. Anybody rides with such one ?

Can these be refurbished if they worn ? Struts I mean )

I doubt it. Re-buildable ones probably start with Tein, at around £1000 a set.
