fair douz.
I'm glad i only have to pay for 2 springs on the Pug!! lol. Sod having to buy a set of 4, at around £40 a spring rrp!
ie: £200 odd quid for a full set for a corsa for just springs. My local motorfactors can do a full GMAX kit for £170! mad!

I had Eibach on my old 306, drop wasn't massive but they did improve the handling.

Wots the comfort like??
My -40mm gmax on my corsa gave me a bad back on long journeys??
i presume these are close to factory ride quality etc?

Not sure who they're made by - I think they're Avo, but that's their "spring" brand.

I've got Chassis Dynamics springs on my Bilsteins and I really think I should have gone for Eibach

comfort is 2nd to none, it more comfortable than the std spring!
far more coils in the Eibachs and they even had the decency to put plastic tubing over the bottom 3 coils on the front springs to prevent spring chatter

Avo are ok. cheap i have to admit.

Mind is made up. I dont think corsasport has ever had such a good review on one brand! no negatives really, bar price!
Cant wait to get em on now!
