Cool. I wont be able to comment how they will ride as my set of GT1's are 12 on the front and 16 on the rear. They are a quality bit of kit though, every bit feels well made (for the price you'd bloody hope so :D )

Yer i have been reading up and taking to Jerrick too.
On the road the gt1 should be a more comfortable and more controlled coilover compared to the CRD. It basically does every situtation better. Its easy to make a track coilover as the roads are flat. However a road suspension is alot more challenging.


I had Vmaxx coilovers on my T5 these are a £500 suspension. I now have Bilstein B14 on my T6 (same van), these are £1100 coilovers. Night and day difference in ride comfort and coontrol.
