Which Xantia spheres?!!

Post by melkig »

Hi all, just need to change the front spheres on my 1997 diesel Xantia as it's starting to bounce a lot but Euro Car Parts has pages of the things..

Can anyone suggest a good choice? (from experience hopefully) :)

Most people will suggest either http://www.aepdirect.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or http://www.gsfcarparts.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, assuming you're in the UK. You can't really go wrong with either of them. I bought a full set for my Xantia V6 from aepdirect and have been happy with the price and quality of them. (Fitted March last year, no problems or degradation of ride quality since then)

aepdirect supply IFHS brand spheres, GSF supply Amtex.

Bought mine from Malcolm Lockwood.
Very happy with the quality, can't remember the make off the top of my head, but they're not Amtex (I've never liked them).

Thanks All, I'll go with GSF simply because they're near and seem a pretty friendly bunch at my local outlet
