Which is best?? If All I want it to lower my car and I'm not goign to be changeing the height all the time, which is best? Springs? Or Coilovers?

Please vote.

 

*edit* Please explain why you voted the way you did.

 

coliovers, because that way you can put it at the exact height that you want.

 

i donno, i'd base it on the quality of each to compare to, like i'd take a well-designed set of performance springs by progress over a set of ground controls any day hehe, though of course i do a variety of driving (highway driving, street driving, incredibly-bad-dc-pothole driving, autox'n) i dont think that i'd actually change the settings all THAT much

 

Springs. Less setup time... they're all at the proper height... you don't have to worry about corner weighting, and they're less expensive.

 

coilovers ride as good as stock if not better. you pay for that kinda of quality in the price

 

All a coilover is is a spring between two collars. They will ride no better nor worse than any spring setup.

 

do you have "real" coilovers?

 

shocks/springs is always the best way to go when lowering, the ride you get with properly mated springs and shocks far supass the coilover route. The only advantage coilovers has over shocks/springs is adjustability, but you already said you aren't/don't want to do that so springs would be the way to go.

Don't get me wrong, when you start paying upwards of $1000 for full coilovers, you can get some that will rival your shock/spring setup WITH adjustability to boot! But if adjustability isn't a feature you want/need, go with springs and shocks.

 

not true, partly. If you lowered my car using Eibach ProKits and Tokico blues, you would see that the ride would be smoother than if you lowered it using Ground Controls(even though Eibach makes the springs for them) because the spring rates are higher on the coilovers, which means less ride quality. I happen to like the ground controls, but they don't compare to a shock/spring setup.
