My experience with us they started off ok. I bought them for appearance not performance.
They have developed a knock on the front if you hit something hard. Say a pot hole when you don’t see it. And now have a snapped rear spring. These have been fitted for 4-5 years. So maybe that’s there life time up.
ThAt my experience with them and my issues just but they have been fitted fir a good few years.

Why are you fitting coilovers?

Cheers for the reply mate, was going to fit them for a bit of both really looks & handling but thinking about it might just bite the bullet and get some more expensive ones like ap as don’t really want to make the ride any worse
On a S3 I would get the best you can afford. I’ve just ordered Bilsteins for my car now. It’s only a 2.0 diesel but I ride was quite hard. It didn’t bother me but had a few comments from other people.
So I thought I’d try and get a better ride aswell this time round

Yeah coming from my old car with 100quid eBay springs I can definitely relate to the comments from other people haha
