I think:
1. Ksport
2. Megan Racing
3. ??
4. D2
5. ??

If I had to choose between those 5, I'd go with D2 cause I like the colors. lol.

I dont like the color of the ksports but they are the cheepest for what you get. i saw the drop on them and its pretty low. not sure about handling though. Im either going to get ksports, t1rs, or skunk 2s. depends on how much money im willing to spend. still doing research.

I'm personally going with the D2's myself in the next few months. 36-way adjustable dampening, they are only $812.50 shipped, and they are freaking purple I read some reviews online and seems like everyone is happy with them, esp if they are using their car as a DD.

*****Edit*****

Google "D2 coilover review" in your spare time... you'll be pleasantly surprised with what you read...

I got the D2 coilovers...and I love them...the ride is excellent..handling as well and they are less expensive than the T1R or the skunks2...plus D2 company is well recognize...but at the end is whatever you want to get.

What am looking for a is nice ride (NO BOUNCE) and I plan to ride slammed......
So just looking for other options and advice from people that have coilover's on there rides.
Saw rvall004 last night and the car sits nice and low and he does not have it all the way down eaither. and he's riding on 16's which is the way I might go with rims.

skunk2 pro c is serious. It's a chunk of change more than Enduratech's but you're getting a tried and trusted name. Plus I already have Skunk2 catback, so I might as well Skunk out my car lol I still am on the fence...but I've narrowed it to those 2 :P
