Default coilovers

Im still running a set of Skunk2 springs w/stock shocks. The ride aint bad but one of my shocks is going bad.
I want to upgrade to a FULL coilover to have control over ride height etc... i dont have big cash to afford the big name stuff and was wondering about the Omni, SPW, and OBX.
Anyone have experiance with any of these, I dont want to go bouncing down the street all ghetto looking and waste money on junk products. Want a good full coilover that rides nice and NO bounce crap.....

Omni gets from me.

Search in the suspension forum if you want more info.

how much money you got? i have tien basic dampers and they work great, you can get them for around 675 but it's worth the money. Omni powers i heard are about the same price for coil and shocks and are pretty good. The best way not to be ghetto by bouncing around is buying either a full coilover set up (as listed as above) or getting like tokico shocks with the coils you have. that way is a cheaper and okay route. good luck!

I have the OmniPower street, and I love them! Omni gets a from me. The service from Kteller was great and the price is even better. The thing that I like about the Omni is it is all one big piece. Remove old stuff and put new on.

Easy to use. Tein basic do not have the top hats, you use factory, plus the basics move the spring perch to adjust right height which would mess with the preload (someone correct me if I am wrong) while the omni's allow you to set the preload and adjust the ride height seperatly without affecting ride quality.

I had Ground Controls, and went to Omni's I will never go back to sleeve and spring coilovers, only the full body from now on.

Hope that helps.
