What do you guys prefer on your evo and why?
Currently undecisive on what to purchase for my daily driver.

Coil overs so k can adjust the ride height to exactly how I want it I have the H&R ones kind of spendy but well worth it

If youre DD'ing, staying w/OEM struts is your best bet. Run them w/some Swift springs & youre set. Less fuss, better corrosion protection, more durable & less chance of seal failure

If you just DD your car, just get some bilsteins and good springs.

If you need/want better performance, and can afford them, good coilovers > OEM struts.

I was looking at the Tein s. Springs.

My background is more track day performance parts so we tend to recommend Swift / GTWorxs springs

Again, if youre just DD'ng, & the spring drop is not too aggressive, im sure the Teins will be OK (there are certainly plenty of EvOs running them)

If you're just dd'ing the car, just get lowering springs, and buy some bilstien struts when your stockers wear out.

The problem with lower springs, is their spring rates are still very soft. For example Swift spec-r evo springs are 6.5kg front/6.8kg rear. http://www.swiftsprings.net/products...ct/spec-r.html

While a ton of people have found good results on 10-12kg springs on street/track coilover setups.

Your numb to NVH just like the rest of us. I run, 10K/12K & seems perfectly fine to me on the street, while those that I give rides to, want to know whats wrong w/my suspension

I know ppl that run up to 16k/16k on their track evos. 10K is like a Cadillac in comparison

OP wants this for a daily. No mention of track or autoX

I prefer coilovers, with 10K f/11k r springs, because my local roads are smooth and the car sees occasional track use.

But the OP isn't going to the track. You need to consider how the OP is going to use the car, not how you use your car. The same setup does not work for everyone.

You do not have to go to the track to appreciate a good set of coilovers, like Ohlins R&T. The thread is titled Spings or coilovers?

Looks like everyone has a little different opinion, sounds a little biased 😜. Whats the major difference between each other besides one is adjustable? Its going to be daily driven and if it ever see's a track its going to be a straight line.
