Does NE1 have an idea of the quality of Coilovers that are sold by Tom's Motorsport? I saw a new pair for a decent price but I am not aware of the quality. Any thoughts would be fine.

Thanks

 

springs are better and dont have threaded collars to get rusted and siezed

 

i have a set, but i havent drove them in the winter yet
they are on my 4th gen in my sig

 

they are low end quality...you also need good shocks with them...atleast a tokico blue if you poor(but you can't go to low with them)..but a kyb agx woudl be better..

 

y bother posting if you dont even answer the guys question, u dont have coilovers so WTF do you know oK I have had thes coilovers and you know what the quality is bad, they bounce till who knows when and th ride quality sucks. I know from experience , i guess thats more than u can say . BTW Im on springs now

 

you didn't answer it either... at least i gave him advice that will help him in the future....

 

Wtfigo, do a search on coilovers you'll get all the info you need , dont post here or youlll get opinions from ppl who havent even had experience with what your looking for

punk read my edited post I DO have experience with coils

 

so do i

 

you get what you pay for basically when if comes to suspension stuff...all those cheap brands liek toms ractive R1...you need to find names liek h&r or eibach or tein...generally speakign the better quality stuff cost more so go from there if your coil overs are 100 bux then guess what they will be horrible...most good quality springs will cost about 300 bux and good shocks 700 ish so figure 1000 bux for a sweet littel setup

 

how much did u see the Tom's Motorsport coils over for?
coz i saw it for 180 at pacific mall..

i have them on my sedan, bought the car with them in, its like riding a pogo stick, don't buy them unless your getting some good shocks

 

would you like a medal? :cry: i bet ur too poor for good shocks mr lol

 

 

get a true coilover, i like my coilovers but they bottom out and bounce. and they don't get any lower than in the pic in my sig

 

my springs lower a lot more then those...


and the ride isn't that bad either considering how high the spring rates are

 

I'll bet 20 bucks you didn't properly corner wiegh your car did you?

because that would have solved that "bouncing" issue....also non stock shocks would help also but you didn't mention those in your post so I have no way of telling either way....


ok now to answer the dude's question..... only get coilovers if your prepared to do the work period.

every time you want to raise or lower the car you must corner wiegh the car. this is because wieght will be shifted around and cause bad handling and bouncey responseif the wieght is outta wack.... weight on a corner is affected by that corner's hieght. now I know your saying well I just measure and make them all even right? wrong. go measure the car with stock springs on and you'll see very slight differences in hieght (not something readily noticeable...)

this is why springs are better:

1) no need for expensive corner wieghting sessions

2) no need to worry about the hieght of each corner

3) no temptation to mess up the corner wieghing by wanting to impress friends with a super slammed look....

 

nice punk...well im going to seriously do the suspension with a KW true coilover sometime before next winter
use my stockers for winter tyme

 

Just because he doesn't answer with a yes or no does not mean he's not answering his question. He is giving him some additional information to help with his decision... before you jump all over someone for a post why don't you think about what your posting before you post it ... because it makes you look rather stupid...

Oh by the way this is posting without answering his question

 

man eg93hb got owned like a little school girl...

as a 4th reason springs are better... they are cheaper... excluding the cheapass low quality coilovers of course
