Tom Fenton 1,526 Posted May 10, 2009 Reasonable for what they cost IMO, a lot of people will say they are rubbish, but some of those also sell other makes of damper. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Batfink 201 Posted May 10, 2009 They are ok for the price you pay. I personally think they are let down by cheap springs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chris-stdt 0 Posted May 10, 2009 (edited) What is a new set of front springs worth ? I think there at a cheap price but could be wrong !! I was also going to keep the original springs as im not lowering the car ,would i get more out of the shocks if i put some new springs on? Thanks for the fast replies Edited May 10, 2009 by chris-stdt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bensonmi 4 2 Cars Posted May 10, 2009 What is a new set of front springs worth ? I think there at a cheap price but could be wrong !! Thanks for the fast replies i hope they'r ok as thats what iv got, just not driven on them yet! i used a set of tarmac springs thatcost £50 for the pair and they seem really firm. if they'r cheap they'v got to be an improvement over standard Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pugdamo 111 2 Cars Posted May 10, 2009 Iv got a set of Spax krypton on mine,with 40mm spax springs and i think they improve the road holding alot but they are very hard on the road,i had a set of Koni adjustables on my old XS and i would say these were a bit better ride on the road.
