I am trying to decide on these coilovers and I was wondering which ones will do me best if I were to use it as a daily driving car.. thanks.. or if there are some better ones out there.. price range will be under 800 bucks!

 

None of the above.

Koni/GC for $799 or Progress CS-II's for a bit less (not as good of a warranty as Koni/GC but still good stuff).

The intended vehicle and intended use might help, also.

 

Honda civic hatch ek 96... want to use it as a daily driving car.. so i would have to order them separately??

 

Check out Thmotorsports in the market place. They have great pricing on Koni/gc and you could order it all at once, or seperatly.

For your budget, Koni/gc or progress is the best bet.

Now the real question you'll need to answer is what spring rates.

 

Unless you want to get super mad low low, the stock GC rates are fine for DD use. I'd recommend that actually. I believe it's around 380/250 f/r. I had 380/450 and it sucked @$$ on my 100-mile daily commute I was on at that time.

 

alright thanks for the info.. i will look into it.. as for the spring rates, i dont even know i guess.. just as long as it rides good!! although i dont know what good is.. lol but my buddy has some skunk2 springs with tokico shocks and they ride pretty smooth.. are gc/koni compared to those??

 

What type of shock? Like Tokico blue?

 

Cant beat the cs2s. I have then and i love them. Corners amazin even with my shitie tires and no alignment yet.

 

yessir, and they ride pretty darn good!!

 

lulz that won't ride good for very long

 

yeah bro, they've been riding good for two years now.. year round, even through this midwest weather.. but idk, im gonna have to check them out for myself i guess... im thinking function form type 1.. heard nothing but good things about them..

you have any suggestions??

 

Those are easily the shittest shocks to lower a car on.

My friend had blues on H&R race springs, and they were gone in a year. He now has Koni sports and couldn't be happier.

Do it the right the first time. Get koni/gc and you will have the best setup for $800.

Remember, ride quality is all an opinon. What rides good to you and him, could be **** to patrick and I.

 

The Tokico blues are OE replacement shocks, it's no wonder your friends blew out so fast on the H&R springs. They work well with mild lowering springs with soft rates like their Tokico springs and the Tein S.Techs. Just about anything else will cause problems quickly.

 

ok.. thanks guys!!

 

I have progress CS-II's.

Highly recommend them if you seriously think you have to save money on suspension. Best thing for "low budget"

350/250 rates would be very comfortable.

 

i have tein ss on my teg and they ride awesome imo. idk what the price is on them nowadays as mine came on the car when i bought 5 years ago. even with me having them adjusted all the way down and riding dumped it still rides pretty good. they have 16 way adjustable damping that i have set on 13 on the way around. has a very slight bounce
