FK Konigsports, uses Koni inserts so you get the adjustable dampening qualities of Koni dampers combined with the ride height adjustment of coilovers.

I have Eibach 50mm springs on my 106 and I cant fault the ride quality, although youd probably be best to fit uprated shocks if you are going that low. I havent though as I am skint

The Koni/Eibach setup is very expensive. Works out around £425.00 off the top of my head. Would need to confirm that for you though. Spax PSX is worth considering, but the Koni/Eibach setup would be better.

FK highsports aren't too bad a ride, but can be soft on high settings. Rear's are better upgraded to the Konigsport setup like Brad bought.
