Icon2 *Function & Form Type 1 Full Coilovers: Good or Bad???*

I'm looking to get some full coilovers for my '00 EK Ferio, I was wondering if you guys could give me some feedback and your thoughts on the Function & Form Type 1 coilovers. Good or bad? Pros and cons? How's the ride? My EK is my daily so I'm looking for a smooth but firm ride, not too stiff. If you have any other recommendations that would be very helpful too. Looking to spend around $600. Thanks for your feedback...

Lol grumble, they serve their purpose is the best expanation. If you want quality and a badass warranty just spend the xtra bucks and get gc+koni and never have to buy shocks/coils again.

F&F1 aren't a bad setup if on a budget. They will serve it's purpose for the money.
Progress currently have a sale going for $500. Same with Blox. Check the sponsor sales listing and send them a PM.
If F&F1 is what you're after I say save your next pay check and add an extra $200 so you're able to adjust damping. Just my 2 cents.

The FF coilovers are "street coilovers", so I can't imagine them being too harsh (nor something I would track with). I would suggest looking up the spring rates on those coilovers. Spring rates will determine how comfy the ride may be. I've driven a car with those on before and didn't think they were bad at all. Definitely not something to have back issues with.
