Default Suspension/Drop

Okay guys, you all saw Antonios black S the other day. Well, now that i dont have side skirts its time to drop my baby. What do you think is the best bang for the buck. I want her slow and stiff. I want to be able to put the back end out and keep control, and i want to def. be able to go over the speed bumps on the highway without tire rub after a fender roll. All input is wanted. (not sexually) thanks.

OEM shocks. Eibach Pro Kit Progressive Springs. I drive daily and autocross and can say this is a great setup. OEM shocks are valved very well.

BC Race Spec... you can go low and very stiff if you want to plus they are easily adjustable.

springs, no need for coilovers unless you are tracking the car and planning extensive suspension tuning

i dunno the Tein Basic's are my vote. They are very affordable, offer good ride quality and adjustments and you can make them stiff as shit for AutoX and other events. Also if you ever want to upgrade you can just switch out shocks and/or springs from more advanced Tein systems and make a hybrid setup. The EDFC is also a plus.


But right now I run GC coils/ Bilstein shocks
