They only make the gr+ for the sc/supra. You can buy the helper springs separate like I did and so did 5sp_jzz30 and it would make them gr+ pro. Mine don't squeak or make noise and my car is pretty low. I would definitely recommend these to anyone.

i was joking around. chill out
either way bags are not made to grip anyways. the only use for bags is to slam and look "cool" or put on trucks so they can haul more weight.

it was not a pointless comment. in fact urs was. this is a "how comfortable stance coilovers are" thread and not a "what should i put on my car" thread.

peace homie

+1.

they should not squeak or make any type of noise. if your make noise then its either the spherical bearing in the top hat, unlikely, loose bolt, possibly, or worn control arm/subframe bushings, most likely.

.......ok has everyone calmed down now haha? Anyways, my experience with stance was a positive one. They are a very streetable coilover with dampening at full soft and good for the autoX/drift when set to stiffer settings. Additionally, they go extremely low which I love because some of the other nicer coilovers such as flex' or hypermax' do not. So I feel like you get the best of both worlds with lots of height adjustability. Good price, good coilovers.

Hmmm never considered these. I was so intent on getting Tein CS when I got the money. These are about $400 cheaper, are they comparable?

I think they are but i prefer my ride to be stiff.

Tein CS will be soft like a OEM combo and just be adjust able.

Heres how it drives in my car, FYI i have prothane bushings all the way around, solid subframe mounts, solid diff mounts, 2 way LSD(reason why you hear the racket while i turn) and stance GR+ coilovers with the standard springs but dampening turned up.

I ride on stance coils set relatively stiff. Its still a significantly better ride than my old eibach/kyb set up. That being said, a buddy has Tein CS and his are quite a bit more comfy. Stance gives you some versatility, you can ride higher and set it soft or lay frame with them.
