i was wondering if they are a good setup?

 

I have tried it on my old daily DB8. Not bad, if all your doing cruising. Anything else, get a name brand system like Ground Control, Skunk2, etc.

 

thanks :D

 

well, if you want a good ride, dont go with coilovers.. its too easy to have them too low, and they usually ride really hard.. especially ground control.. i have had them a few times, and, truth be told, i get a much smoother ride from lowering springs, like Eibach ProKit..

i would probably expect a fairly bouncy ride with ebay coilovers.. lol

 

KYB's aren't going to last long if the coilovers have a high spring rate.

Personally, I wouldn't run KYB's with anything other than OEM springs.

 

There are too many variables to generally say that all Ground Control coilovers ride hard. They offer such a wide variety of spring rates, a soft ride is easily attainable.

A bouncy ride is usually a result of being underdamped. (Spring rates are too high for the shocks.)

 

or shocks being used to low, and they either blow, or dont have enough stroke to compensate...

i have put the prokits, and some tein springs on a buddies car with kyb's, and they last a while.. but it also was a very modest drop..
