This thread is very freaking informative! I WAS going to get BC N+ but now I'm torn... between that and the Bilsteins =\
pss9 is a cant miss from all the research that i have done...

buddy clubs are a solid choice if you are on a budget...

Both are in my budget, I want maybe a 1 inch drop, I daily drive my car so I need the suspensions to reliable. Comfort is up there but as long as the handling is better than stock I'll be happy.

have you thought about springs? they will give you the drop you want and are relatively inexpensive

I did but I've read in the suspension forum that springs + stock shocks will decrease handling, my car's closing 100k miles anyways so getting a new set will be better in the long run IMO

i didn't know it decrease your handeling. i knew it wears out your shock faster. i would get the pss9's if you're concerned with the daily aspect of it.
