    Really comfy & use able for fast road. I found a lot of other brands to harsh or stiff.

    How about apex comfiest? Old man Wilkinson used to swear by them.

    I had had hr's on my 13. OK on the road but a little harsh on longer journeys, excellent on track though

    That is a good shout. I had apex years ago. I found the springs lost all there coating & looked rusty quite quickly.
    Also the collars seized & I had to cut them off. Bc coilovers seem to be better quality.
    I've had them on 2 R bodies, 2 s bodies including my current project & my vip lexus ls400.
