I've been given some kyb coil overs to try out on my car and was wandering what peoples opinions are on this make? I've tried searching the net for reviews on these but can't seem to find any. They look really heavy duty compared to the spax ones I have as they are about twice the thickness and have damper and rebound adjustments. Need to try and get a pic up to give an idea on the size but I'm not sure how I upload it off my phone.

Lol just borrowed them. Given them back now as they would be too much trouble to fit. Shame because it was a nice bit of kit

Would have to get bigger top mounts, relocate where the front brakes are clipped to the chasis and maybe longer braided hoses, spacers for the hubs, may have to cut the chasis to get full lock not 100% tho, then after all that I'm not guaranteed that the wheels will not rub the shock and with the rallies I want to do I can't run the wheels any wider than the arches. Probably afew other things too which is a bummer :-(
