let us know what you think dude, TBH I think most people are put off by the cheap price.

Might be a good option, as yet, undiscovered :thumb:

I used em after fixing my car up for its mot, Def a thumbs up as far as value for money go! I've not experienced a far superior set though so not really sure whay're like in comparison.

rides ok for cash. slightly stiffer but not quite low enough for my liking though. had spax or koni's on my other motors so i expected too much. allround verdict is a damn good contender for Ԛ£49 + 2 hrs work

the ride height may still settle a few mm, most seem to drop a further 15mm after a few 100 miles.

what is the current measured drop M8 ?

i've had GSF lowering springs on a VW scirocco and a pre-facelift E30 318i. both were by boge and wrer TUV appoved but weren't very hard (not much more than standard though lower) but in those days i was too poor for the right shocks...
