im reading alot of differnet things as it seems each coilover brand has some sort of issue..

im jsut finidng out now that the bilstein doesnt coem with upper pillow mounts, the buddy club n+ have leaking issues

i really dont want to be spending more than 1000 and it seems as if theres nothing really good, i dont trust megan my friends have had lots of isuses with them.. so im kinda stuck, maybe i shud jsut get some springs and a set of ap2 shocks and call it a day

any more opinions guys?

My Buddy Racing Spec 10k springs are over kill for the street. Replacing a bad strut was a piece of cake though. Called em, told em prob, they mailed me a new strut, i sent in the old one.

I never track my s2k... so I'd definately go with a more street/sport set next time. Probably pss9. I tried springs originally. It just ended up being a waste of time and money. You're never unhappy with the ride height of coilovers.

There has been some talk of Stance coilovers. They look to be pretty decent. Might want to check these out.
