Help me choose coilovers.
I am ready to buy my coilovers. I have narrowed it down to these. BCR, K Sport Kontrol Pro and tanabe sustec pro . I am not really interested which one goes the lowest as I will not drop to the lowest setting any way. I am more concerned with quality and the best ride possible with coilovers. I am looking for any one here with first hand knowledge of these coilovers. Any info positive or negatine would be greatly appreciated. Also if there is another choice with in these price ranges please add it to the mix. Thank you.
From what I hear the best ride quality is the JIC but much coinage$$$$. After much, much and much research I ended up buying the BCR Coilovers and love the ride. I have had them on now for over 2 weeks. They are easy to adjust. I can't speak to how they compare to the other brands and this is my first experience with coilovers.
Good luck, hope this helps.

I have to say that the Tein gives the best ride quality. The JIC magic will go the lowest I think. The JIC will not ride better than the Tein because the spring rates are so much higher

dont know what youre talking about but the jic's can pretty much ride like stock and get real stiff (no homo).. Ive always been a huge fan of jic's and loved them when they were on my ride before..

Obviously you chose these 3 coilovers based on the price, because its definitely not for the quality. If I had to choose between the 3 it would have to be Tanabe. They are the only GOOD quality coilovers on your list. The sustec does go down very low though. I would wait and save up for Tein CST. You will thank yourself later
