Default Bilsteins, which kit????

I've decided to go for billies all round but don't know whats the best kit or combination. I need something thats gonna be quick for 'on the limit' road use (not track) but I don't want coilovers, it's for a 3-dr cossie and I can spend between 500-800 quid, any ideas peeps (Marco)?

to be honest you would be better off having the bistein coilovers go for low spec tarmac front something like 450/150 with 12" springs say 400's lbs and low spec gravel on the rear 240/110 with a 16" spring

i use harder rating than these because i do the odd track day but mine work fine on the rd and i have got the car they way i want it .....it' has took me ages to find the right balance trying all different set ups ...

supension is really personal choice ......what i like might be totally diferent to what you would like ...it's hard choice tobe honest

I ran PSS9's on my Focus until my Leda's were repaired they were almost as good.
