Hey Dood. I'm on stock springs and struts at 65k and it still feels tight to me. With lowering springs though they make the struts work more and wear faster. It's also not unheard of to blow a stock strut with lowering springs. If I had lots of money I'd go with DG Springs and the Koni Srt.t (orange) struts. Just thought I'd chime in.

Edit: the yellows I think are adjustable so if you want coilovers for a street/track setup that's something to consider.

Thanks man, yea maybe because your suspension is still on oem springs right? I have lowering springs on but I feel like I would need to replace the struts soon because I drive a lot and just wanted some recommendations. I'll look into it :)

I have H&R SS what would you pair them up with when its time to replace shock/struts


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I had H&R SS with Koni Yellows and they were great. The rears are a pain to adjust once they are one the car but the front are super easy.

Would those be the coilovers? The yellows

Nope, Koni Yellows are the Koni Sport Shocks with adjustable dampening. Koni Orange (STR.t) are cheaper in price with no adjusting.

Not as cost effective but I'm really happy with my mFactory coilovers. It's definitely a firmer ride than OEM and is worth riding in a car with coilovers before you buy a set.

Changed from stock coils to R8 because of misfires.(not tuned) 3 of the 4 are fine but I can not get the coil in the 2nd cylinder to sit right. It still needs to go down about half an inch. There seems to be some ceramic debris from the plug in the cylinder somehow and I think that's blocking it. Any idea what to do?
