my koni kit has that


But your Koni kit has no ride adjustment.
You should get improved handling/ reduce body roll by lowering the centre of gravity - coilovers let you do this without (hopefully) sacrificing ride quality.

so coilovers basically allow u to adjust height with no greater benefits to handling than a full suspension kit?

or am i wrong?



coil overs are better so long as you can adjust them for rebound and bound dampning

For best=money no object, consider something like Weitec, Bilstein or even Gaz.

For best=the most practical ride height adjustable, FK Hightsports

For best=cheapest, probably FK AK budget.

those konis arent coilovers, and you will be hard pressed to get any for £350 even the highsports.

you sure those konis are definitely coilovers mate?

as far as suspension goes you'll find it hard to get better than koni or bilstein

In terms of being able to adjust the height? I know you can with fk hishsports but what others? Dont want anything over £350

Seen these koni sports...

Sport suspension kit including adjustable front and rear Koni shock absorbers and front and rear Vogtland springs (from Koni). Suitable for all Corsa B models. The shock absorbers have adjustable damping for ultimate vesatility.
