Granted I got a little too stiff of a spring rate than I was comfortable with. I had 500lbs springs front and rear in a basically gutted hatch with a weld in roll bar. If I was to do it all over again, omni coilovers front and rear, they are cheaper and its a threaded shock coilover, not that that makes a difference I just like them.
I didn't say they were necessarily bad. The coilovers I have are Patec Holeshot Series 4. It only cost me $745 shipped for them, brand new. This isn't a Honda. This is a Volkswagen they are going on, I would rather trust a tried and true part that is common with other Volkswagen drivers. I already have them though, so there is no point in arguing about it.
