    which ones did you get mate?

    I'm thinking of a set of eibachs not sure whether to replace the dampers with bilsteins as well. I'm finding the ride a wee bit bumpy with the 18's

    Just seems worse going over bumps they seem harsher. going to look into a set of bisteins as they may actually help the ride. Handling with the 18s is amazing though. combination or traed again and bigger wheels makes roundabouts fun

    Sorry for this going off topic,,,


    And do u fancy lowering it too or not?
    Not going down the lowering route (yet!) Gone for the TSW Warrior's with 235/35/19 Yokohama's in the end. I was going to get the BK299's but was finding the wait too long.

    Back to the topic, Paul, if you want to come to mine at the weekend, i'll give you a hand with them. I've got trolley jack's, axle stand's etc. My brother in law should have spring compressors and everything else as he is a mechanic (ford) by trade!
