Default special edition ground control coilovers?

does anyone have the special edition gc coilovers? do you recommend them?

also what spring rate would be good for a daily-driven teg? (not too stiff please )

i have em. special edition or limited edition ones are really soft, and comfortable. i coupled them with kyb shocks... so i can make them a lot harder, or almost stock. i like this setup quite a bit!

im telling you man , same **** , i called ground control to ask them when i got my 1st set. they said they are the same . but the special edition signifies a "sale price" . . . .you know what that means right. they weer always that price, but they put special edition on it so everyone buys them thinking there was something new on them to improve them and what not. . . its a marketing scheme

I think the "special edition" coilovers are the ones without the adapters, for koni or bilstein.

GROUND CONTROL said themselves that they are the same
