Current setup: skunk2 pro-s adjustable "coilovers" (oem shocks)

Ride quality is horrendous. I thought I could deal with it, but it's gotten to the point of insanity for a DD.

I'm looking for a smooth ride, adjustable height with a good amount of drop, and a slight to moderate improvement in handling. Would by best option be to find a nice shock to go along with the skunk2 springs, or find a cheap full coilover setup to replace it all. My budget is around 700.

I'm considering Function & Form Type I or II. I can get One's for $600 shipped and Two's for $700 shipped.

 

Koni Yellow, Bilstein HD

 

ground control/koni yellow combo

 

Maybe I could go with Koni Yellows with the s2's and then get gc's when I can afford them.

 

Thm has them for only $799, why buy coilovers twice?

Save a 100 bucks and do it all now, and end up saving money in the long run.

 

What's Thm?

 

Thmotorsports. 799 shipped.

 

Nice, I think I've been there before now that I see the site. Thanks. What are you referring to that is $799 shipped?

I priced out Koni Yellows and GC coilover sleeves for $640 shipped..is that really how cheap they are? Or am I missing something...

 

The more and more I think about it, I think it's in my best interest to just get the koni yellows now and see how the ride is with the s2 coilovers. I mean damn, $285 for shocks is way cheaper than I though they would be.

 

Pretty sure 285 is for TWO shocks. I think they are sold each. LOL. So take that times two for a total of 570.

 

That's was afraid of .. I'm not ignorant, that website just does not explain anywhere whether they are sold as pairs or not. Bummer...lol...now I go drink and forget about it

 

Your only buying 2 shocks lol

 

Yes, I agree that it really sucks when you don't really know what you are buying until it shows up at your door. Even at that price, the Koni's are a good investment. I loved my Koni/GC's and will probably be buying another set. They rode well, handled decent.

 

Progress CS-II seemed to be a GREAT choice that fits what you are looking for.

 

Yes me stupid :thud%$#^

Thanks, yeah I'm liking koni more and more. I'm seriously considering trying them out with my s2 sleeves and if it does the trick and I'm happy, I'll keep that.

Thanks, I actually just searched up on them the other day...definitely a good price, but if I can go with a koni/s2 setup for roughly $100 more, I may do that.

 

Remember, if you go with skunk2 you'll need to buy an adapter to use them with the koni shocks.

 

for a dd and on a budget just go with the skunk2 pro s full coilovers... i had them on 2 cars now and they are perfect for DDing with a bit of fun in the turns

i personally wouldnt try to salvage those springs just cuz their sleeve kit is known for their extremely harsh ride

for you slammed ****** they can drop really low (currently i have 15" wheels and have it set as high as they can go and still barely have a 1" gap)
