Default coilover suggestions

Which coilovers do you guys think would be the best for street use? I doubt it would ever go to the track....

Im currently in the market for a set. Im wanting something that i can adjust ride height, as well as comfort (dampening).

So far ive narrowed it down to the Apexi EXV, Bc Racing street, T1R, Buddy Club N+, and D2 Racing.


Which ones would you personally pick, and why??

Thanks.

i am in your position at the momment...
reading many threads...the best option for you/me is springs...find one with the perfect ride height...

So far my conclusion is to get used coils :/...cheap and it'll have ride height/dampening adjustability...lets just hope it wasn't beat on

is reliability part of the equation? if so, you're better off staying away from BC and D2. I've heard horror stories lol

let me know which ones you end up going with, and i'll do the same.
what do you have in mind with right now??

and by the way, what did you mean by "lets hope it wasnt beaten on" if we were to buy used? is there anything to watch out for for buying used coilovers?
