For straight line stuff you will mainly be interested in setting static camber and zero toe change with these.

My reply could be seen as to be biased so I will let others comment on if they work

You will need coilovers on the rear - so as a package to get the best results you need good components all round.

Just out of curiousity, why are coilovers needed?

And its good to see someone not endlessly plugging their products no matter what,
a good product, and surely plenty impartial folk will do the plugging for you!!

Why coilovers ?

As the rear wishbone is removed there is nowhere for the original coil spring to seat to anymore !!

Depends which coilovers you get but the parallel arms are Ł450 and the trailing arms Ł250 all with competition spec rose joints.

We've got some of Tonys bits going on the focus Gaz, its really good quality. Buy it mate, the spec of your engine alone deserves a quality suspension set-up.
