Ok so I'm ready to do an upgrade to my suspension. Now I have a 04 MCS and I'm looking at either getting the eibach springs or the full blown JCW suspension kit. I was wondering the pros/cons of both and pics of a MCS with aero body kit and either suspension setup.

Thanks in advance

An aftermarket suspension setup will be cheaper and most likely better then the JCW kit IMO

by aftermarket do you mean the eibach springs or meaning a different brand of coilovers?

The general preference is not to go with the JCW suspension. Reports are that it is too hard.

Try www.leda.com

I have LEDA's fitted and they are truely amazing, and a good price too.

Are they not giving you alarming grinding noises?

Your thread seems to indicate that you have problems.

This is not a common trait, and is something that I am gaining a solution for with Leda. Others have fitted LEDA without problem.
