coilovers worth it?
i have been doing some research and read reviews and found mixed opinions. I live in maine where the roads arent so great and read about someone bending and cracking rims becuase of a very harsh ride. But, i have also ridden in some dubs with coils and they seemed to handle it very well if anyone can provide and insight it would be helpful thanks.

I've got the Vogtland coilovers and they're fine up here in Michigan. A few guys run the Bilstein shocks with the coil over adapters from ECS. If I had it to do over again, I'd probably save some money and then change the control arms as well.
For what it s worth, I keep ride height set at 26" to the fender. Any lower and I scrap on some of the car wash wheel guides around my area.

any road that is bad enough will tear up a car but i have plenty of friends that have coilovers and they all ride great to me pretty close to stock other then rubbing issues when they are lowered all the way down but you can gain the same look without the adjustability with just springs and have a lot more money left over after you buy them
