Hi, does anyone have or has had any experience of the pedders extreme coilovers , have been offered a new set of these in exchange for the ezifit sportsrider kit that i just fitted but turns out they were faulty . They are saying these are similar to the bc's and meister r's but better ? Any advice or information would be appreciated

Is it the pedders shocks and springs that you fitted that are faulty??

Aye mate , the **** of the car seems to be really low now compairwd to when they was fitted , and one side sits about 10/15 mm lower than the other , before i got them a spoke to them about the reviews i read about them leaving the **** saggy on wagons and thet said this had been resolved with the fitting of a higher spring rate but it seems its still not solved the issue .they have now had a wagon into there premises and taken all the corner weights/ride heights etc and are going to make wagon specific kit but that will take a few months to complete, so theyve offered me a set of the coilovers as a free upgrade just need to return the other kit to them .

No worries mate had been looking at the pedders kit recently thought the swap might have suited us both, coilovers are no good for a daily but might have been a better option for the wagon as you could have adjusted the rears, hope you get it sorted mate

Cheers mate , everyone ive spoke to about it said the same about coilovers being a bit to much for a daily thats why i went with the pedders kit but looks like the coilovers will be my best option for getting the ride height the way i would like , just need to leave them on a soft setting i guess for everyday use . Dont be put off the pedder though there still a decent set up , think their revising the spring rates for the saloon aswell mate .
