The advantage of a coilover setup is the ability to adjust the height and to corner balance the vehicle.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Another question here - I have been looking into some aero kits recently and then I was told to simply install new springs for a better look - after researching that I found that springs maybe are NOT such a great idea and I should be looking into a "coil-over" kit - any suggestions as to where I might find the best "bang for my buck" with these coil over kits online? And any idea of how much it might cost to have these installed? Once again, thanks in advance for all the help!

POST 2Original post

The advantage of a coilover setup is the ability to adjust the height and to corner balance the vehicle. If you're fine with a fixed height then a spring/shock combination is perfectly fine. Generally the advice is against changing the springs without upgrading the shocks. If factory offers some of the best bang for the buck upgrades if you're good with a shock/spring setup. If you want to go coilover people seem to like the Bilstein PSS9/10 for mixed street/track use. If you're going hardcore track then coilovers are your answer and there are plenty of great setups but they get pricey quickly...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Great point I am actually not tracking the car at all, just looking for smoother appearance - I generally HW drive around 85 mph or so, and occasionally take it up to over 100 - I fear the "bouncy" and "unstable" nature of the beast with just springs - any thoughts if it is worth it to spend the money on coil overs when I am only using it on street and never track? I obviously would like to keep a smoother ride as the roads here in Minnesota are already bumply enough So just wondering what would be my best bet! Thx.

i tried doing just the springs (against my mechanics advise) and the car rode horrible, very bouncy. i changed the shocks and it was much better but i still was not happy. ended up doing pss9's...awesome! car rides and handles better.
