Default pedders?

Do they make any good springs/shocks or coilovers?

or is it all crap? I want to change the springs and shocks over to some thing slightly stiffer and slightly lower without spending a bomb.

I was told that they dont use their own suspension on their pedders rally car, is this an indication as to the quality of their product?

cheers

Koni or Agx are both pretty good and dont cost too much.

I got Koni Adjustables and Whiteline springs.

Springs were about 500, shocks were under 1K for all 4

Allow another 500 for fitting but
