Jamex coilovers for me no other option.

ok guys, after weeks of negotiation with the misus, she has agreed to buy the coilover instead of the cheaper lowering spring alternative. but I am limited to only £200. i was hoping that i could go away with the £115 spax lowering springs but after my family trip to devon i realized adjustable suspension is the only option so i can adjust the rear ride height with heavy loads. so the only option for me is the JAMEX coilover kit. for the past few months the price have drop from £220+postage to £200 posted. I choose jamex becuase the name has been in the market for quite sometime now and compare to other cheap coilovers it has better reviews and ofcourse the price.

the kit should be fitted by the end of this month of not early May. ill keep you guys posted. ill try to post some pics and reviews if i can.

denzzz28 what model zaf do you have....surely if you buy the coil overs that state 30mm drop from standard for your model then if its to low you can get your money back..because they gave you the wrong info...

cos the inside arches of gsi's are deeper yours will rub they did on heritage's on the highest point i would go for spaxx lowering springs.

i would recomend eibach or h&r both are a bit of money but both are great springs and never heard and bad comms on them
