Default best coils

looking into possibly getting coils, wanted to know which ones would be the best ones. i dont want to compromise ride comfort and my budget is about $1000 i read alot of people have BC coils so im assuming those would be good right?

Yeah there good once you find a sweet spot. You can also get different spring rate and a plus is there no real down time on the rebuild. Cause you can do the rebuild yourself for $100. Rather then send them in and wait.

are you going to keep the 10/8kg spring rate? i order my coils from ravspec with 12/10kg because i tend to carry weight in the car, so i dont want too much bottoming out. I also add swift assist springs for the extra comfort when i dont have weight in the car.

I've got Megan LP's and are smooth as a baby's bottom as far as lowered cars go! I'm pretty slammed on my 19's too. Check out my pics in my garage. Megan also just came out with their EZ series which has same height adjustability with less dampening capability. Check them out. Just my 02cents
