Ready to race!
- Location
- Vancouver, BC
Narrowed it down to 2 different coilovers for my MK7 Golf 1.8T (50mm spindles up front).
1. ST XA
2. Bilstein B14 PSS
Goals: Ride quality for daily driving, nothing overly expensive, zero track time, replace my stock shocks + VWR lowering spring combo
I realize ST XA are basically KW V2's without being stainless, and should ride very nicely. As for the Bilstein B14 setup, I'm a bit concerned about not being able to go as low as I'd like without getting into the range where the ride quality really suffers (these do not go that low).
I live in Vancouver BC, Canada, and our winters are pretty mild, but there are days where there's salt on the roads. Will that be a concern with either of these corroding?
Opinions and experiences with either are welcome! Need some help making the right decision!
Thanks
