Cosworth Suspension
Hello,
after some advice, looking to change the front shocks on my 3DR currently SPAX and was looking to go for Koni or bilstein.
Currently running Ahmed springs which are 1 year old.
Just want to know peoples thoughts and what they suggest.
Thanks

Coil overs can be perfect for a road car if you get a good set and set them up you can also choose what spring rates you want and set the ride hight to your liking

I have had Koni s on mine for 13 years 60,000 miles use it every day for six months of the year.
They still work perfectly and don't leak my only gripe is I have had to weld up the spring platforms as they rusted away so if you go for koni I would give them another coat of paint to protect them
Cheers Tim

Probably just need a 6 degree rear beam to make it all work and a good geo setup...and some proper tyres, toyo, yokos, Michelin pilot sport cup etc.

Coilovers 'could' be great, but they need to be correctly valved and sprung for the road
Most coilovered cars I've been in have been bloody awful on the road and the owners with their blinkers on loving the shit rock hard slammed ride
I've been in a few Koni/Ahmed cars and they are great for road use.
