Weitec Hicon GT Coilovers VS Bilstein B14 Coilovers

[Greig300]

Been looking at upgrading my S3 suspension setup. Narrowed it down to Weitec Hicon GT Coilovers or Bilstein B14 Coilovers. Which one would you recommend? Also maybe getting R32 ARB.

And can't go wrong with h and r anti roll bars,they are abit more though,but really thick and strong!

What adjustments are available on the weitecs? just springs height adjustment or can you change the dampers stiffness?

 

[Greig300]

just spring height on both.

 

[DPM]

The two kits listed are just height but both are available with damping as well.

Any prices just give me a shout and remember we offer price beat promise.

For street use Weitec's work very well,(I've fitted loads of kits) If you live in an area that doesn't have a lot of speed humps and/or do the odd track day then Bilstein's maybe better suited.

I have Weitecs and they are awesome. Also the Weitecs come with the ARB tab so you can fit an LCR front roll bar.

LCR front ARB better than Stock S3 ones? or the R32?

LCR front ARB is 16mm which is smaller=less under steer.
