AJ Joyce Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Yeah iv got them on mine and I agree with ash bumpy to say the least lol but for the price you can't fault them. I'm adjusted the same as ash too 20mm left on front and adjusters in on back. Have had it without adjusters its great look but havnt rolld me arches yet so getting that done and some strech then I'm going for no cups lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannyshack Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I got mine a couple of days ago and fitted them, really bouncy but definately worth it for the lows, im same as the others atm around 15-20mm left at the front and all way at the back with the adjusters in atm, no scrubbing at all atm so all is good IMGP4642 by Dannyshack, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grazo22 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 I popped some of these on mine last week. Fitter them myself without too much difficulty. My friend at work had bought some for another car and said they were okay for the money so I got them. Probably cheapest to buy them from vemon directly.On the front I have a credit card length of adjustment before I'm at the bottom and on the rear I'm 15 turns down from the top. Possibly they are still settling in. I did the camber myself using a gunsons camber guage and had the tracking done by the garage for £25I didn't want it too low as I live near a lot of lumpy country roads. The car does hold the road a lot better now however I have neck ache from a bouncey journey on the motorway yesterday.They are good if you want to go low and throw it into corners. Just not the most comfortable.BeforeAfter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grazo22 Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Everyone says these are bouncy, although i dont think there too bad. Mine are Getting a litte better now they are bedding in. I may drop them a little more however my steering has developed a knock whilst changing direction which is bliming annoying and it seems much looser now it's low.My biggest critisism of JOMs is they make me want to drive "enthusiastically" everywhere when all I want to do it be a slug!!

bowers155 Posted August 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 it doesnt matter now managed to get a bargin ta's for 151quid brandnew in box opend only to check all parts were there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loz Martin Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 people say these are bouncy, is this because there really stiff or they literally bounce and ruin the handling? wanna lower my sport, but i'm strapped for cash and need some budget coilovers but i need to find some that won't ruin my handling as i still wanna be able to corner quickly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJ Joyce Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 They handle loads better than standerd. But not upto scratch with other brands. You can still go quickley I only realy find problems upon braking from speeds in the wet, I.e shifting down coming to round abouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowers155 Posted September 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 i got ta's on now and well BAM feels great not as bad as i thought and handles great and old slippy in the wet really Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3lward Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Surely their so bouncy because your ripping out the helpers? Thinking of getting these or just saving and getting some weitec's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
