Hi mate, No experience myself but I've heard some bad reviews on them from others, personally I'd hang on til RAD or TransportersRUs get some Vmaxx in stock, definately be worth the extra 40 quid I think.

used to fit loads of these 12-18 months ago, only way i'd describe these is utter dog shite! Removed almost every set i've fitted due to poor ride quallity, dampers failing drop link brackets coming off etc. Still got a couple of sets under my bench. Had a set on the misses polo that only lasted 6 months yet the jom's we replaced them with are still rocking 18 months later.

Just my 2p's worth.
