RAWDEAL 222 Posted April 5, 2017 I am thinking of going coilovers for my new daily I have heard pedders make the only ones that can be passed thru a RWC due to the steel body on them? is there any other good brands , i wouldnt mind double adjustable ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
broken-wheel 659 Posted April 10, 2017 why coilers over just a damper upgrade like a Koni or Bilstein ? you know 4 Bilstein dampers will be cheaper and make your car handle better than the same price coilers right ? also the rear ones you can fit ourself in 30min so you only have to outlay some $ for the install of the front ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The money you spend on good set of Bilsteins dampers matched to your springs will out handle and outlast ANY coilovers of the same value, that is a fact. Unless you're a pro driver, circuit or drag strip value for money can't be beaten when it comes to good quality dampers vs chinese YumCha coilovers, hell costs bout $300 to corner weight you car, send the data to King Springs get the springs, send the data and spring rate to a Bilstein dealer and have them build a set for those specs, install and for the next 10-15 years you will only have to service the damper once and nothing in that price range is available in coilovers ... but what do I know ... The chinese coilovers are utter junk and pedders are chinese rebadged/painted pieces of shit, so are the taiwanese (they do have better anodising on the aluminium parts) and so are the TEIN crap from japan The only coilovers that are worth the money imho are https://fortune-auto.com/coilovers/dreadnoughtpro2way/ with the Swift springs, dollar for dollar in coilover world nothing touches them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
