Has anyone any knowledge or experience of these? They look pretty good, you get full set of lowering springs and full set of adjustable shockers for £375
They can be found on http://www.larkspeed.com and this product number : 2617136 (just type it in search) any opinions appreciated.

I think Blisterin are the choice around here, about the same price too. However you'd need to add extra for eibach springs.

i have the larkspeed kit,good value for money lowers the car nicely,good improvement over standard,body roll reduced ride quality hard but you get used to it.

I now have mine set hard on the rear and not quite fully hard on the front.handling pretty good.

I still would like less body roll,think im going to try the uprated rear ARB next

on the whole if you want your car lowered and a more sporty ride its good value but not the complete handling solution.

get yourself a strut brace too if you havent one already

Anyone else got these? They look an absolute bargain of a buy and Koni are no slouches!

I got a set of these too, good value for money IMO.

I would recommend getting a set of used shocks to take the inserts well before the fitting day. That way you can clean them up and paint them so they're ready for fitting.
