i have 17s" and Eibach Pro Springs on my 172 mk2 at the moment, the ride and handling is pretty gash because of the 17"s, can anyone tell me if the coilover would make any difference to the ride quality? Because it truely is quite shocking?

Gaz2130 - If you want a better ride then youll have get rid of the 17s. I doubt the coilovers will solve your problem.

Ive got the same car as you with Pro springs, adjustible Konis, 16" OZ wheels and Exalto tyres. Although the handling is very good and generally comfortable, its still difficult keeping the thing stuck to the ground, like when cornering and hitting bumps, the back jumps out real bad.
