whats peoples experiences withs these coilovers, they were the boys over on the 106rallye forum.

im close to buying some h&rs but ive come across some billies.

question is which will i be better off with, mainly road use, tank of fuel a week, with hopefully several track days thrown it.

Road use H andR's

 

[Fred@BTM]

we sell lots of Bilstein stuff, if you're a track nutter then they're perfect for you, tons better than shitty LEDAS

 

[Dan_cup]

but for road h and r is better, i can handle a firm ride, the billies are goin for 500ish which seems a bargin

 

[matty w]

i'd go for the billies mate i've got H&R's which use bilstein dampers and they are top notch but could do with being a bit firmer especially on track

H&R use bilstein shocks, but H&R springs. Perfect for road use imo

edit, just read above post

yea had a search and found this out, so basically just spring rates are diff?

£200 less for the same quality isnt bad though

I'm tempted with some billies...seen a 'cheap' set on ebay

In the same way that Liddle and Marks and Spensers both use meat in there food.

They use each other products as there good they use them in different ways.

People say it like you get what you're given.

Bilstein PSS9s are great, just order a different rate spring! Copy the H&R spring rate if need be.
