Coil over system

I'm going to working an extra jobs this summer and will have some extra cash to pick up a coil over system.

Anyone got any ideas/feedback on what to pick up for a GD, daily driving only?

Looking to pick up around the end of the month.





P.S. Sort of doubt it, but anyone have anything for sale?

Raton likes his skunk2 coilovers and he uses his fit for daily driving and autocross. I hear t1r is good too, but maybe a lil more stiff. I'm on t1r springs and adjustable dampers. I'm happy with those, they ride really good. But they're a spring and shock combo...

enduratechs are supposedly really soft and nice for DD. i believe the cheapest ones are d2, megans, and k sports.

If you like your setup and it's just for recon I'd put the stock fronts, say it's dropped then change back after.. I was never a big fan of coilovers for mac strut cars unless they're really well designed

The Skunk2 coilovers i have are very stiff but I got them specifically for autocross. If it was just for dd I'd have gotten the enduratechs.

ok i'll look into the enduratechs.

although the ground control coil over sleeves have really caught my eye. especially since you can customize the spring you order!
