    JOM/hottuning/vmaxx

    I am looking at some budget coilovers and it seems to me that these three are the same? Under different brand names? JOM do theirs pretty cheap from the UK, is there any good reason I should stay away from them and go with hottuning instead? Also do any of these offer a warranty? Cheers for any answers to my many questions.

    but thats the downside to budget coils, whilst they let u go low for a cheap price they sacrifice comfort. im pretty sure vmaxx are jom coilovers rebranded.

    Hottuning coilovers are the same as Raceland. I had a feeling JOM and Vmaxx were also the same cos of their colour scheme (polished body, red springs and blue spring hats). Not entirely sure but judging from comments on other forums, they seem to ride the same anyway.

    I've got raceland in the cupra & they were very hard when I first installed them. Once I lowered them ( height keeper coil off full comprssion) it's now firm & the wife is happy to ride in it again..
