it depends how u like the ride to be. the rear springs are 550lbs spring rate thats pretty stiff, if u want a soft ride u have to go with ground controls which is a really soft spring rate and they suck on the drag strip. or get koni yellows with skunk 2's and loosen up the strut to get a soft ride.

I have koni yellows and ground control coilovers. The ride is nice and smooth. Theyre a very good suspension.

so we are talking about the skunk2 pro series coilovers right?

well yea i bought those a couple months back and am happy with them

the ride is ok, its not as bad as some peoples cars i have ridden in(didnt know what setup they had). i really dont have anything to compare it to though since this is my first coilover setup

and they are pretty cheap, i have seen them on some sites for only $529
