AP are superb coilovers for the money, KW have better build quality if you want to spend that little bit more  :pomppomp:

I got rid of my Aps after moving back to the UK and fining them to harsh and crashy.  KW are probably the most crashy of all the setups ive experienced.  Ask Mike, i hated them on his car lol.  The only two setups worth considering in my experience if you want to retain a level of comfort but have performance is AST and Bilstein

Experienced KWs on my A3, cousin's TT, AP's on my friends A4 cab. I don't find them crashy at all, I rate them highly from my experience  :happy2:

Ive been on JOM for the last 12 months and they are the best ride coilovers ive had

used Fk and AP in the past and very harsh in comparison

JOM give lows but keep the same ride quality
