Anybody got any wise words about what coilovers to use for a mostly street driven car that will see an occasional track day? Lower ride height without bottoming out plus adjustable valving is the main reason for going to coilover. I have Eibach springs with Koni yellows now along with suspension and brake mods, various reinforcements, SSR wheels and GS-D3 tires (245 F/275 R). I don't want to go full race and I'm interested in durability as well as performance. I don't mind a relatively stiff ride but I don't want any crashing/bottoming on bumps, etc. And no, I don't keep the car loaded with stuff or weight 300+ lbs. I do, however, drive pretty aggressively when a safe opportunity presents itself. Basically, I want a very high performance street setup that will stand up to track use. I don't need the last few tenths of a second of lap time. Thanks for sharing your constructive comments.

 

Please use the search function, there have been dozens of threads on this, including several within the last few months (or even weeks).

For your uses, you need something with reasonable spring rates and US serviceability. This leaves very few choices on the market. The top two that come to mind are the Tein Flex and the Zeal Function. There are some newer quality brands that are still building up a US presence, but Tein and Zeal are way ahead of the game in that department.

 

I did use the search function but even with various keywords/filters it returned too many useless hits. I know about TEIN but hadn't heard of ZEAl so thanks for that.

 

Give Rishie at Auto RnD a call....have a realistic budget in mind.

 

How about Ground Control's coilover kit for the Konis?
