H&R coilover set. Need help deciding
As the title states..
I need help deciding what Coilover set to purchase new. Its betwwen.. H&R coilover set or Bilstien Pss9/10 The H&R's would run me about $1300.00 w/tx and Blstiens Pss9/10 would run about $2000.00 w/tax The reason for the H&rs are the price. I cant see myself paying 2k for coilovers... I rather save the money i save and put them into wheels. If anyone has any review on the H&R coilover set, that would be great. Let the flaming begin on the " " button not being used. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks Sorry this was posted in the F/S thread...

Not to jack your thread, but have you considered single adjustable AST's with Swift springs? They are reasonably priced and from what I have read should be a good option.

Actually if you're going to "save money" on a set of coil-overs, don't put it to the wheels. Put it toward a good CORNER BALANCING and alignment.
IMNSHO the ability to easily corner balance is the single biggest performance reason to get adjustable height coil-overs. |

Between those two, I would do the Bilsteins because I think they are a better compromise between performance and comfort. They are easy to adjust and well regarded on the forums. I ran them on my daily driven E46 and was happy with the mix, it was a very good performer without being too stiff.
