I did a quick google, and it is available in the UK.
It appears to be a German company from what I have read.

But as Ian said, not very well known here in the UK.

Bilstein is the most popular dampers (B6 / B4).

I used Spax springs on mine 30 / 40mm lowered, which looks quite good with 15" (39cm) Fanblade alloys.

40 / 60mm drop may suit 14" (35cm) wheels.
Just be careful of ground clearance.

I would not risk 60mm drop in the UK due to poor roads and speed calming bumps in the roads.

Yes, brother is made in Germany. Turkey is a very good way of not count. but I drive at the weekend for pleasant driving. Meanwhile, I will make spacers on the rear wheels 25mm + 25mm
