Wanted to pose the question....which I'm sure has probably been answered, but I'm looking for a good set of coilovers for a mostly daily driven S2k. I want good adjustability for a stock type ride on the streets daily, to something pretty firm for HPDE type events or weekend mountain runs. I'm also looking to keep the stock ride height, possibly a small drop of 1/2 inch or so. I know some coilovers have a max height that is a bigger drop than I want.

Most important is the quality, something that has a long service life on a daily driver before a rebuild/recharge is necessary. I don't mind spending the money to get a good coilover, and having the car corner ballanced.....I just don't want to have to do it often.


Thanks

The Bilstein PSS9 has been reviewed as being very street-friendly. They are rebound adjustable, sturdy, and allow you to keep close to stock height if so desired. They also are firmer than OEM so they're a bit more composed on the track.

I had looked at these on Tire Rack....but it says the drop is 35mm. That translates to more than an inch.....which is more than I want to go. 10-15mm would be ok.....

thanks

I don't believe you have to lower it that much. There is a range of acceptable ride heights. I'd talk to Tire Rack and see what that range is.

LOL....I shoulda thought of that. I was taking it more as that was the amount it dropped it by default. Thanks for the other perspective!!

I talked to the folks at Tire Rack and found out the lowering is -10 - -35mm from stock.

This is right in line with what I'm looking for.

That's about what I thought. Glad you got that cleared up. I think you'd be pleased with PSS9's.
