Default coilover sleeves or full coilovers?

im debating if i should save up for F2 type 2 or buy ground control sleeves over stocks.im considering the sleeves because its winter and there isntmuch to do in south cali, its my DD and im lookin for stiff but in the same time tolerable for DD.once the weather gets hotter and season changes i can already have enough money for full coils..what do u guys think? specially for ppl who have the sleeves how does it feel?

sleeve coilovers of any brand, or any lowering spring for that matter, on stock shocks will be pure junk. If you live in an area that gets any snow in the winter, I would highly suggest staying stock until the spring.

Also, GC on Koni Sport shocks will probably be a better combo, more customizable to your liking, and most likely will last longer than any of those cheap@$$ "full" coilovers.
