Well....my momma always told me that if i didn't have anything nice to say.....

No but seriously, they aren't the worst coilovers out there, but I think you could do a lot better.

Under $2k for a car that's also daily driven, it is my opinion that they are.

no one has mentioned it but, friend has tanabe sustec pro7's with TEAS - we drove from LA to Houston - on the way we saw (hint, hint.....) M5's and Bentley's - very fun! - suspension was way softer than stock at freeway cruising speeds - but as you accelerate or took curves fast it tightened up bigtime(automatically)...all cockpit adjustable too. It is very easy to drive that car on a daily basis. little over $2000 though.

Opinions on HKS? I'm very interested in their setup especially since I can get the suspension rebuilt in the U.S.A

I honestly can't see how most of you are posting things like Tein and JIC. Those are all short rebound "jdm" coilovers! There is no room for travel compared to the European coilovers! Get some rebound in your lives!

CroatianKid,
You are off to a great start with the Bilstein PSS9's. They are great coilovers, and are very comfortable, BUT, some of us more experienced drivers tend to find them a bit on the softer side (even when in its firmest setting). You keep talking to Andrew at GTWorx, and guaranteed he will put you in the right suspension for a good price! Its just a shame so many other members are feeding mis-information about suspension, simply because they haven't experienced many different coilovers.

Personally, I prefer KW V.3 because they ride so damn comfortable, they have tons of travel, they aren't super expensive, and they don't go soft.

Good luck on picking a suspension!
If you have any questions, feel free to pm me.
I never mind helping a fellow Croat!
