Will your shocks also accept the standard 2.5 inch diameter race spring like Eibach ERS or something similar?

I ask because those springs are offered in a really wide assortment of rates and lengths.

They do, yes. And up to 9" in length, maybe a bit more if you had to.

^ congrats, I rode in a car with 14k front and 12k in the back and it really didnt feel like 12k's out back. It rode really good for such high springs rates.

It's not too bad at all. My girlfriend doesn't like it but it's because I'm running 14k/12k rates haha.

Seriously these are great coilovers. As soon as I pulled them out of the box I knew they'd be legit. The craftsmanship is great, and the performance is there to match. My car is slammed and DD'd and these are showing to be my best set yet (had four different coilover setups). Simply put, you should hop on it. You won't regret it.

Icon3 PIC [heart] VS AMR

wow... i voted PIC. without knowing AMR. I was looking for the right Coilovers, Cosmetically & Customer feedback, I was sure PIC was def. the only choice. I was happy to have found the Coilover of my dream, White coils to match the Frost White Coupe{EJ1} Gold adjustable top to match my White and Gold theme on my Coupe{EJ1}, the Omni Power similar bottom. I thought I had found THEE set, damn.

It's not like your coilovers are bad, but you cant beat custom made to your spec lol

Is PIC falling apart? I just tried calling them directly along with a few dealers recognized on their site, and they all told me the same thing "we are no longer keeping these in stock, we have tried to reach PIC directly, but cannot get through".

This shatters my entire universe, I was really looking forward to getting a set of these beautiful coilovers

If anyone has any information, it would be greatly appreciated.

odd, it's been a week since PIC Performance has been on here, but hasn't posted since last July.

I guess the only thing I can do is to call each dealer, and see if they have any in stock. Ugh I was going to order these this week.
