Default What are the best, reasonably priced coilovers? I don't know much about them but I need some!...

Stasis? H&R? Vogtlands? what is the best way to go? My bilstein shock/H&R spring setup is wrecking my control arms, and I don't want to have to keep replacing control arms and I want to have the luxury of height adjustment. Apparently having coilivers will not hurt my controlarms anylonger, so it's way cheaper to do that then doing control arms every year =) I am ready to buy immediately.

Thanks,

Mark

Default Penskes!

Oh, you said for street use? Vogs. Maybe Eibach, need to look into them as well.<ul><li><a href="http://www.startupracing.com/B5ProductsSuspension.htm">Shameless Plug</a></li></ul>
