ive got h+r's and i find them to stiff for daily use great for handling though i do have to say. can't comment on anything else realy as i havn't had them but if i was doing it again id have kw varient 2's as there damepning adjustable so you can wind them off a bit for the roads and on for the track !!!

[sohailG40]

I've KW V2's on mine and I find them more comfortable than the Koni's and Eibachs that were on it before

Just remember to constantly keep them sealed and weather tight.  I used to use the lubricant spray, but would just wash off in rain or during washing, was constantly reapplying every week or more.  Eventually the threads just corroded and the spring platforms stuck solid.  Had to go back to KW in Germany to get refurbed (free of charge though).  KW coilovers are stainless steel, apart from the polo ones as like all polo coilovers use modified hubs.  They are just zinc plated (think), which soon gets taken off from the spring platforms being wound down the threads.

I would assume most other polo coilovers are the same...

i wrap insluation tape around the threads on mine seems to work ok keeps grit and dirt out then just un wrap the tape when you want to adjust and put some more on when your done

[sohailG40]

if i were to choose out of the kw's or the H&R's which one of the would be the best for the polo ??

[Jezza-7]

I would personally get kw variant 2 if i could afford them but i prefer kw to h&r.

[dub-disaster]

id go for kw but depends if your going to use it mainly on track id go for h+r but if on the road a fair bit two go for the kw or the h+r cup kit is realy good bit of kit just isnt hieght adjustable on the front . half the price though !!
