    OME or KinGS

    Hi Guys,

    Wouldn't mind doing a poll on these two, to see which one is the better.
    i here they are much for muchness, but i seem to like the kgs with the look of the yellow springs above the tyre. If you had to choose one of these which one would you choose ?

      Never heard of KGS so I would pick OME from the 2 options listed. BUT Bilsteins rule over OME and cost almost the same... :twisted:

          I went for Kings and they did what I wanted from them, so value for money they were perfect for my situation. It depends on what you want from them. Is it for lift or load?
          I haven't used OME so can't directly compare, but I'm pretty sure Chippy is happy with his. CHIPPY...??? is that still right.??

            I am watching this with a bit of interest.
            I have bilstiens but with lovells springs.
            I think they are sagging again. so the King springs from what I hear are good and dont sag. so might be put in place soon.

            But if OME come out on top, you never know.

            I have a feel that there are more OME's than Kings here so it might get some one sided feedback.

              Mine are not the heavy duty, they are standard rate but raised and I've had no sag with them so far. I believe mototrim has some Kings fitted also, not sure if they are heavy duty or not.

                I have HD king springs on the front and raised on the rear and couldn't be happier. Cheap as chips too. You want to fit a set Jeff?

                        "I" wasnt thinking at all, It wasnt there... It was hanging out with the rest of the vowels. dont worry about me. the men in white coats arent far away...

                        Matt. I have been thinking of kings as a replacement.
                        Dont know when tho....

                            My 2 cents, i had Kings first on the jeep and they sagged and then replaced them with OME no movement hardly at all in 50k vs 11k for the kings.
