For those that keep himming and hawwing, this is some food for thought.
I have purchased a lot of suspension variations. I haven't tried the Endura-Techs. Probably won't, HOWEVER I think I could have saved myself a lot of aggravation if I tried them first. Unfortunately they weren't out until late spring this year. I won't only because I think I'm on the cuff of having what I have lately work out for me.

Here lies the detail as to why you want these if you drive on the street:
Everybody's spring rate is WAY TO FREAKIN HIGH! Great to track the car. But the cold reality is you are NOT SPEED RACER! You are boy wonder and need to drive this car on the street. Did you know the rear spring rate on our cars from Honda is 148 lbs. How come everybody is doing rear springs of 350 lbs then on the rear? Front spring rate of 464 lbs?
That's the spring rate of a Honda Odyssey with over 4200 lbs.

Endura-Tech's spring rates of approx. 290lbs front and 168lbs rear is right at where they need to be to handle really well, and be comfortable. The valving is not adjustable and that is the only thing missing, but from what you can read here is, buyers are liking their product a whole hell of a lot!

Just wanted to throw some beneficial information out there for those considering coilovers.
