   They are good springs but the ride is harsh imo.

    Had Spax on both my old saxos. Never had any probs.
    Not sure what I've got on the current one. But will more than likely go lower on a Spax setup soon anyway.

    I quite rate them. Got them on my car, and had them on my old one... But people seem to love them or hate them.

    the problem with budget springs is that they tend to be quite compromised. Easy to preach how good Eibach, Faulkner springs are but often they are out of budget.
    
    Tried these and are good enough for us to stock

    the only other ones are 25mm so you may have to look elsewhere
