How much are you willing to spend? Advanced design double adjustables are around 2500.00 with springs, you can spend twice that, or half that. Is this a dedicated track car? Carl

spending about 2000 dollars on coilovers

I really only want to spend about 2000 dollars for coilovers. There is still tires, swaybars and brakes that need to spend money on. I really cant think there is that much of a difference in coilovers when you get over 2000 dollars unless you are paying for a name. There is not that much science to it. All you need is to be able to adjust height, dampening, rebound, shock length, travel, etc.


Thanks

Wrong on all counts If you think that though there's no sense in looking farther than a set of Koni adjustables with a coil over conversion.
