Hi all,
I want to put coilovers on my polo 1.9tdi 9n3, a bit undecided as to which to choose.
FK and JOM Blueline are my two options and I am looking for a more comfortable ride rather than a stiff grippy suspension.
Based on personal experience, which of the two would be the best?
Thanks in advance!

FK would be the better option, But don't expect a very comfortable ride from either
I had JOM's on mine, Eventually upgraded to Koni... FK's are better... BC's are betterer..... Koni's are betterererer

Fk or Jom ain't gonna give any comfort. Definitely no comfort at all if slammed.
These Coilovers are much stiffer than a shock-spring setup hence the ride is hard.
I have fk on my polo, decent ride height with 17" wheels. +- 1 finger gap all around, removed helpers and the ride got abit softer.
Grip does Improve alot though, car just hugs the road, no bouncing, takes bends with ease (tyres depending)

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on
