between those two i would def go with the ground controls. the teins are mediocre springs and they don't give an aggressive enough stance for me. it all depends on what you like though too. if you want to be able to adjust or if you feel like you won't be doing that alot.

i wouldn't get ether one of those. i would get a complete coilover like hks or apex etc. they are fully adjustable and they bring out the full potential of the cars handling capabilities. but it depends on how much you want to spend. the way i see it is if your going to upgrade something then why not get the best i meand springs or full coilovers?? which one do you think would be funner to drive with? since i bought my first pair i will never get anything else when im buying susspension. but thats just my opinion...♠

I agree

Full Coilover sounds like a good idea to me. My friends just got Function and Form Coilovers and they're cars handle great (IMO)

It wasn't as expensive as like known brand name sets but it did the job just as fine.

Full coil + corner balancing =

Coil sleeve + strut + corner balancing =

Good springs + good struts =

Any Coilover w/o a corner balance =
