Now there's a bargain i would take Baz, cheap kit for you saving money and also helping Ally offset his costs on the billys

Re: bilstein shocks
anyway why go on and on about wanting to change your shocks for the last 3 pages and then decline the offer of a cheap set of shocks that you want, i dont understand
plus the fact that you've not even asked how much i want for them surprises me even more. ah well i'll just stick them on the bay when their removed on saturday. unless anyone else wants them

Re: bilstein shocks
Hi my cally 2.0i is sittin on standard shocks n springs with 17s theres a gap of about a 100mm between the arch and tyre which i think needs sorting. Which set up would you guys use? I had a set of gmax on my cav gsi and it was a hard ride and the rear spring broke after about 18 months. but that was down to pot holes i think.

Re: bilstein shocks
down to personal requirements i suppose, i put a full g-max kit on mine last year but found it a bit bouncy at higher speeds (on private roads) this is why i've changed to the bilsteins (had them on my old 8v)
one set up most go for is bilstein shocks and either eibach or apex springs with a 40mm drop. although it is a harder ride. if its a softer ride you want go with the g-max kit but personally i wouldn't recommend them
