Thanks for the thoughts
@Ex850R @bigal
Yeah I've def. considered the H&R's too, really would need some B6's or similar with those, though, so might become a bit more harsh than I want.
And like the Eibach's they're realistically nearly impossible to find. Think we missed the boat on this
@bigal – all sold out by about 2012!
Choices are..
Lesjofors, which are cheap for a reason no doubt (lots of stories of them being so shite they kill the shocks)
OEM - which will do the job well, but expensive and have zero excite-factor
R springs - don't know the P/N or if they can be ordered
Don't bother – just update the mounts and see how the original gear goes
When I do a job like this I alway want to go "better than stock", so it's slightly annoying to replace with OEM kit..
My understanding is the R springs are a bit lower/stiffer, so I might try to locate a P/N or front spring code for those. They'd probably go well with the slightly more taught than stock Bilstein B4's.
