I bought a set about 4 months ago and I've not been happy at all with the handling of the car since! I set the car up with about an inch gap all round, then started bottoming out on back roads. So I raised her up a bit more and then started hearing grating noises in the back when I had 2 passengers in the back. So I raised her some more. I noticed the car to be a bit more stiffer when raising the springs up.
Are there Coilovers supposed to be a performance package as they are not stiff at all and seem to have ruined the handling totally!! Even for someone who wanted there car extremely low, these are a bad option imo.
The reason I bought these was because I had an issue with my near side front spring rubbing on my top mount. Audi wanted 260 quid to replace 1 spring... I did some searching and I could have got all 4 for that!
My mate said go Coilovers, because you can adjust the height and you would have new dampeners too.
This seems to me like I've made a bad decision.
Anyone else made this decision or have any input on what I should do?
Kind regards
