    Eibachs for me and to get the best looking ride height you need the upto 1060kg front axle set as the Vecs are 1065kg. The next set up goes from 1060-1130kg and makes the car sit a little higher. Heres my thread from when I fitted mine.

    Once settled I got a 22mm drop on front not 15mm and the rears not so much, around 12mm instead of 15mm.....perfect in my opinion.

    Cheers OPC. Eibachs seem to be those of choice. Interested in ride quality to as it's a daily drive and the family car too.

    Where did you get yours from Rik? Demon Tweeks is best price I've seen at £160.
