172 FK coilovers

[Aids172]

Is it best to buy ones with fixed dampering or adjustable. Would the adjustable produce better ride comfort when on its softest setting or wouldnt there be anything in it.

good question

although if you are goin to spend what the adjustable fks cost you mights as well get some H&R and be even happier

On soft setting if there like my old adjustable setup it will be like there no shock absorber the car will rock up and down after hitting a bump. On the hard setting it will be like theres no give in the setup.

I found a setup I liked but it was probably smilar to the setup that most fixed kits offer.

Go for the height adjustable, forget damping adjustable kits, ive been in a lot of different cars with loads of different set ups and most ive spoke to with height and damping adjustable kits usually say they are more hassle than they are worth.

Ive got the fixed damping units, I would have got the adjustables if I was a track happy sl*g whore, which Im not just yet.

 

[caymanr26]

how do you find the non adjustable bad - are they really stiff?

 

[badinvincible]

Ive no complaints.
