H & R coilovers on B7

Post by CL05_low » Sat Jun 20, 2020 11:42 am

Just wondering if anyone is or has run H & R coilovers on a b7? What are people’s views... getting very bored waiting for Bilstein to make some b16s

Shockerboy Koni shocks get rave reviews.

What's wrong with the B14s, do you envisage adjusting them once set?

KW V3 are the most common alternative to the B16s.

I’d like to be able to adjust them to suit. And someone on here said the b14s were not great?

I think a lot of it is personal preference. My DRC is certainly showing signs of failure and I'm 100% going the Koni Shockerboy route when the time comes.

They'll be arguments for and against all the options, you'll be able to find the right comment convincing you to buy the set you think you already want!
