Hi,
I'm finding the ride on my R32 Mk4 a bit rough and was wondering what's best to do, new dampers or change over to coilovers? The car's done 63k miles and has the original springs and dampers.
I was going to change the dampers for Bilstein B8 Sprints:

Or the AP coilovers:

I'm not bothered too much about the ability to lower the car, I just want a nice ride from the car. Nothing else is wrong as all the bushes etc were changed for oem when I bought the car.
One other thing, The aluminium spacer/washer on the oem dampers, (the one that can cause creaking), can this be thrown away if I use the Bilstein dampers?
Cheers for any feedback
