As a rule you're always better to go with the 'big-name' brands, Koni come recomended by everyone - as always.

Ring ESP (0870 751 8000), they're the people who can help you the most with modding the 'newer Fords'.

If you want to fit 16" wheels or bigger then you'll have to go for a coilover kit (try Avo) as the top of the tyres will catch slightly on the bottom of the spring cup on the rear strut. Unless you fancy wielding an angle grinder to your spring cups and using nasty wheel-spacers that is!! :cry:

sound's good to me.

I had a fiesta and went for eibach springs....found them to be quite good.

To fit any more than 16s on u need to grind a bit of the spring seats away as well. (not a lot tho)

remember to make sure the brake flexi pipes at the front are outta the way of the wheels......I nearly had a nasty accident with tthem cos of that :sheeeet:
