There are a few different types out there. What brand were you recommended?

The lower you go the more stress you put on standard suspension parts though.

Hottuning ones can be got for around £350. Vmaxx around £550. H&R around £750/800.

A fella I know had them in his astra sportshatch. Needed replaced in less than a year as the top mounts had rusted. :cry

That's only one case I know though. I know other people using them with no problems.

Think hottuning ones are similar to the vmaxx but cheaper IIRC.
