Are the ebay coilovers s**t?

[Dub_Dan]

ebay hot tuning ones or the ap's is there a major difference apart from lowering?

[Veedub9n]

APs will give a much better ride. The the Hot tuning ones go ALOT lower than the AP ones at the back.

If its a daily driver then i'd spend the extra for a better ride. If the APs dont go low enough at the back, buy custom rear springs, they arent expensive.

i think the aps would be ok on a 17" wheel?

[Veedub9n]

Check my build thread out dude. Ive got 17s and AP coilies. Rear are fully down wiht adjusters out and fronts have about 30mm ish left to go.

Where you looking for exor wheels?? Theres got to be some out somewhere.

I ran the amazing Exor as you know and Ebay special coilues. they did the job, bouncy as f**k. but the handling was amazing too, except on a bumpy corner..




Front could go down another 15mm and rears were at the top

That polo was mad when fully lowered

[Dub_Dan]

PIP! i hate you lol i want these wheels so bad no others look good on the car what so ever! what you driving now by the way? and get tucker to sell me his wheels!!!!
so pip do you rekon if i got ap's they would be better in the bends?

[Veedub9n]

Those ebay specials are all the way down on the back??

Theres a lad on a local forum and his is alot lower than that all the way down and hes on 16s.

Heard mixed reviews myself, some say the TA Technix ones are pretty good. A guy on UK Polo's sells them for £250ish delivered. Not sure what ill do yet but more than likely save the extra cash for some AP's

No, there at the top. so highest they will go.
when i had them on the bottom, front helpers out but still got rear adjuster in i was catching cats eyes with my sump. (after i ripped off under tray.

(this was on 16" raised slightly, after twating the sump and getting a bit scared. and so i could drive it without scraping.. lol)

(pre bodyshop) The lowest APs would go on the back but plently left to go on the front.
