Default SEMA 2012 Ohlins Interview - Road and Track Coilovers

Hey guys, we got to interview Jeff from Ohlins suspension out at Sema last week. We did a video with him going over how Ohlins sets themselves apart from other manufactures.

Thought you guys would like to see it, really good info in here!

Also -They have a set out now for the IS250 / 350

Haha, these are a very nice set of coilovers. Not for everyone, but nice for those who want the option!

Agreed! But if you want a track-ready coilover setup, this is a GREAT option!

True, but for those who have the money in the budget and want some of the best out there, this is available

These are not only great for track use but are also very comfortable for Daily street use as well.
