Default anyone used FK springs or coilovers?

How's their quality?
I'm planning to get their spring for my B6 A4 but then I haven't heard of this brand and not sure the quality of their spring
also how's the ride quality
is it harsher than H&R or just as nice ride as Eibach?
thx

Default so far their spring rates seem undesirable for performance

but I think Achtuning is addressing this issue. I personally have really liked the H&R coilover setups I've tried, but H&R's are known to blwo shocks.

Default not good to me

spring rate was tested at something like 390F and 250R...not ideal for performance regardless of shock valving/compression.
