    I put the Stasis Street Sports on and it is very close to OEM as advertised, the ride and handeling are 100% better than my crappy stock setup...

    I have Koni Coilovers on mine and i love them. The Ride and handling compared to stock is a night and day difference!
    Add a RS4 Rear Sway Bar into the mix and you have yourself a car that handles 10000x better than stock

    seriously???

    if they are anything like the PSS9 for the GTi, then NO!

    They are a great combo for occasional track, and autox. but comfort is the last word I would use to describe these.

    You want to go lower, and have comfort? KW, hands down. Good handling, not the best, but the ride is fantastic.

    The PSS, and PSS9 should be able to out handle the KW.
