spotted these and they are about the same price as the Spax RSX kit but are they even worth a look in?

Anyone had/know of any experiences with them?

I'd be tempted!
Also some of those wheels look tasty!

one person PMd me with a link to them as he had a 182 cup, cant remember his names but its in my coilover review thread

Some of those wheel nuts look quite nice. Not to ott if you want a stut kit but keep it subtle.

I stuck a post up about different makes of coilover on the Spax thread but it probably wasn't noticed amongst the arguments.

AP
AVO
BC
Cobra
D2 (above link) - look the same as the BC's
Weitec

How do those all compare to the common setups we hear about on here?

Where are they made etc?

 

[Dan]

I havent seen many of the above in cup pack size but the AVO are 900quid and seem OK from what people say.

The ktec sponsored tin top car ran on avo. Dan just get some ast's and be done with.

Nearly saved up again after buying itbs..

 

[Tigger]

The only ones I know of are Cobra - had them on my dci & 17" wheels and that was comfortable compared to my current setup!

 

[Fred@BTM]

D2's are made in Taiwan i believealong with all the ksport stuff

 

[kaz19880]

go cheap and cheerful and get some hottuning ones lol

 

[Tigger]

Fred!
Any knowledge of the other kits oh almighty one?

 

[dmallett]

The ones on the link arent the ones with the rear out board coilover though are they? thought the 'road setup' could be had cheaper than the link with the d2's? (or w.e its called)

Mate had d2 coilovers on his civic, they look the part all anodized etc but ruined the car handling wise! so crashy/

Have known a few people with vw's that used the weitecs tigger mentioned and they have been nicely made and ride decently even when dropped really low. Though ive not had much experience of them.

M8 I have been thinking about them but it seems a waste on my car as I'm only going to do a few road spec hill climbs and drive it normally all the other time I use it.

I think I will be having some bilsteins tbh

 

[Dan@SJM]

D2's are back breaking!
