Coilover questions!
Before anyone says go look at any other threads and that the topic is beat to all hell i have looked at numerous threads on coils. But i am curious what coils would be the best bang for your buck in terms of comfort and looks as of right i am on running the H&R super sport springs that lower the car 1.5 inches in the front and 1.2 inches in the rear. I am also on Rohana RF2s 19 inch wheels i am looking to go lower and don't plan on ever tracking the car so coils that are more than 2k are out of the question. Air suspension is also something i have looked into but living in Colorado i have many concerns. Thanks for any advice!

Fortune Auto 500 series are best for the money. 1300 bucks, plus their about to raise their prices.

KW V1? Stainless steel shock bodies so rust should not be a major concern. They can get you fairly low on this chassis. They ride relatively well, quite a bit stiffer obviously, but not harsh or bouncy. I have had them on my last 2 cars now. With the Fortunes/BCs/etc you really should upgrade to Swift springs otherwise they can be a bit harsh in my experience. Once you do that they aren't really that affordable anymore, however. Camber plates and dampening adjustment are the big bonus of course. I don't really have any interest in dampening adjustability so that's a moot point for me.

You still have to contact someone when going through a vendor like those on here, or ecstuning, etc.

ST, made by KW and won't rattle over time like BCs.
On sale here, may be cheaper elsewhere. https://www.urotuning.com/products/s...-rwd-1322000d?
