Koni, APEX, KW or Vogtland?

Anybody had experience with any of these suspension companies? All around the same price wise just wondering which brand is the best to actually buy and fit to my car and anybody had any bad or good experiences?
Cheers in advance.

Springs and shocks?

Yes mate I'm looking on your site, just ordered a Whitline ARB, got some turbo pipes off you a few weeks back, you may remember issues with the delivery where UPS blatantly lied about trying to deliver them and you had to resend them!
Happy with the service provided so spending more money with you guys!

Personally, if your budget allows I'd go ST by KW.

I was leaning towards Spax and Koni just because it's a brand I'd heard of from the old max power days!

I can get the KW ones just wondering people's opinions.

The Koni kit is definitely a good option for the money and use H&R springs.

Are the Bilstein B14/B16 worth the extra money over the others?

You can get H&R springs off eBay for £135-145 from a shop in Germany. Drop is 30-40mm depending on which model Leon.

I have them from the above seller and must say they have improved the ride lots.

Thanks mate, am going to look into getting these probably over the next month or 2. H&R seems to be the ones getting the best write up from what I can tell

I had Bilstein B14 set in Octavia Rs (-08), very stiff and NOT suitable for everyday car. If you dont like comfort and tracksetup suits to your driving style it is great value for money....
