FK Stuff?

[CGDoig]

Anyone running FK suspension, kits or coils from concept 1 on their cars? I'd like to go with a quality kit, and the price is so right for the FKs. Plus the added no shipping bonus. Let me know.

FK is pretty popular, their higher range coils use koni inserts. Go for streetlines and above, you won't be disappointed.

Oh ya, I guess the next question will be on top of that one is the sway bar. I've heard you need to get a different size to clear when the drop is complete. Thoughts or opinions on that?

5+ years on my FK cupkit with zero complaints.

I have a FK 35/40 Cup kit as well on my Mk golf and after 9 months my front strut seized. So we had to replace the strut again with FK.
If I was going to buy new I would buy a H&R cup kit over a FK cup kit. Don't know how they are for coils but that was my experience and would never run Fk again

Re: FK Stuff?

I have no experience with cupkits, but i've heard lots of good things about their coilover kits. I'll also be using fk streetlines for my bag setup, so I can let you know my experience in about a week or two.

Re: FK Stuff?

ive always run H&R coilovers and will be on my mk6...buddy of mine just got the street perf hr's on his 06 S4 and it rides awesome and has a seriously aggressive stance! spend a couple bux more and go that way...my two cents.

Re: FK Stuff?

Ive had a couple sets of FK coilovers from both ends of their line up so I can chime in.
the first was a set of FK special editions (fixed dampening, non stainless) at the tiem they were the next better upgrade from the AK kits, so they were on the lower end...and they rode like it!
Now I have FK silverline X+ and they are a fantastic kit in everyway, but they were pretty pricey.

Moral of the story (and Im pretty shocked this hasnt been thrown out there yet haha)
You get what you pay for!

Re: FK Stuff?

Cool thanks for the input guys. Next question is where should I purchase such items as the h&r and fks? Any good experiences or better pricing? Local too, instant posession is always a bonus for this type of stuff.

Re: FK Stuff?

Fk is sold by Concept 1 only.
Honestly, if you want H&R go through Tire Rack since they have awesome deals and shipping is fast.

Re: FK Stuff?

Fk is not sold exclusively by C1, But Ken has an agreement to purchase bulk orders from them so nobody in town can really match/beat his prices.

Re: FK Stuff?

I thought they were the only ones here who sold it. my bad
