Which Coileys - KW v1 Vs Eibach Pro Street S
« on: March 05, 2010, 10:20:08 am »
Has anyone run either of the above? Looking at both at the moment, second hand and both are around the £400 mark, will only be using them purley for the drop, will add 10mm spacers and go after a nice stance.

I know peeps have said in the past they upgraded from springs so im thinking it will be better just to get the coils from the start.

Feeback appreciated

Ive got Kws and i had them on a previous car they are great. Have you thought of AP coilovers ? VWR recommended them to me but i ended up going for the kws for resale purposes, there are a few people on here with the APs that rate them. If i remember correctly about £450 will get you a spankin new set. :happy2:

Just put KW V1's on my GTI and they are excellent, the ride is firmer (not harsh though) but much more composed than standard.   :happy2:
