i had some cheap coilovers on my red sport, i think they were jamex or something but apparently all the cheap ones are practically the same. You get what you pay for, my ones broke my back and really didnt make a difference to handling. If your spending that amount of money i think you should just get a good spring and shock set up

I had them on my yellow ibiza with no problems! Ride was a tad on the stiff side, but for 180 what can you expect!
Weitecs are good as well, got them on the current one

you pay what you get for. i bought some and mine were for looks, not performance and they do the job. you want performance, save up and spend more on a decent set.

the ones made for saxos and 106's have been proven to be unsafe in design and construction.

My mate has a set of these on his Astra Coupe and the ride is absolutely fine, handling has improved as well. Very good for the money.

I had some on my GSi, my mate then bought them off me and one of the shockers snapped within 3 weeks.

They seem to be fine on the majority of VAG cars, as there are loads of people running them

So these aren't too bad then? I saw them on Ebay a while back and wondered, all I really need for the Corsa is something that let's me get it to the right height. It's hardly going to be comfortable with 35 profile tyres no matter what.
