vworks41 Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Jamex, V-max £300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nev Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 are the jamex any good?Im about to buy some and have read up on them all. 300 is my max budget and they seem to fit that well.They also seem to be the best finish and having a stainless base they should last longer.theres the g maxx also but they seem to have reports of a hard ride. I have had a car with gmaxx on before and it was remembering it a very hard ride.There seems to be some cheaper non branded ones on ebay with various names but there all the same kit by the sounds of it. not sure wat there like. I know a few people on here have bought them but havent herd the reports yet.I seem to be swayed the jamex way. Is this a good idea or not?

vworks41 Posted June 11, 2007 Report Share Posted June 11, 2007 As far as i know their all made buy the same company, and just rebranded.If it was my money i would save up extra £50 and go for some FK high sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamex stuff is really harsh and bouncy where as the FKs give a comfortable ride and still handle very very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
