Default Anyone heard of KGmm coilovers?

I am new to s2k and I am looking for some good coilovers for my car. I saw on s2ki.com that Gruppes has some KGmm coilovers on group buy for 1470. Is that a good price? I think they have some Buddy club RS on sale for 1370 too.

I did my search already but I didn't find any info on the KGmm coilovers, just on their springs. Any help will be appreciated.

I ran a set on my Civic. They are pretty good. A Koni/GC setup is cheaper and just as good...

i don't see why the kgmm coilovers would be bad... i showed those to nishant a while back...... people seem to love their springs so.... them being able to adjust them with coilovers should be even better...

but like others have stated.. i haven't seen anyone with them....

It sounded like you guys think I shouldn't get the KGmm or the BC. What other coilovers are out there? Perhaps tein flex?

flex is awesome. i have them.

ive been in an S with BC's...i think they are nice, they were my second choice. either set is a great choice if your S is a daily driver with the occasional tracking.

why do you want coilovers? to corner better or just lower the car?

I would say both. A stock s2k already corner good and I dont' wanna mess it up by just lowering it with springs. I always want more and I think coilover will do the job. Also, gruppes has lowered their price on the KGmm 1299...maybe I should try it out.
