I had Koni yellow dampers with Eibach springs - it was a great set up, very close to OEM for ride and impacts but with better body control.

Discount BC (hard) and Nitrons (quite hard)

You can get coilovers with 2 springs to increase ride comfort, ones which adjust etc but they are rarely see if ever designed for what you describe

I ordered some Ohlins Road and Track. Just need to wait for the factory to make them now. Out of stock everywhere.

Hmm, I have the Eibachs on my OEMs, this might be a good shout for myself.

Will do once they arrive. No idea when that will be though. Could be next month. Could be July. No idea.

Almost too pretty to put on the car where no one can see them.
