Car if not your sig, mods, current tire size, how old are the bushings, how are the roads? What do you want to adjust? Do you mean set it up once, or do you plan to change it?

You have like 3 options:

Progress@$600
Koni/Groundcontrol@$800
AMR@1300

There really isn't any other good justifiable option in those price ranges. Anything cheaper I would recommend you find a new hobby. Car modifying isn't cheap, and doing it right is always worth doing it right the first time.

I've learned the hard way buying cheap parts. Now I refuse to buy anything that isn't mid-upper level stuff. Recaro, Koni, volk, etc. I had my konigs for 1 month before I saw signs of the finish chipping on them. Sold them and bought a good set of used volks and it was the best decision I'd ever made. Over the course of the life of your car these expensive mods are relatively cheap. I plan on having my car forever, so to me I'd rather buy the quality part the first time and know it will last the life of my car.

Why? I've seen more posts of people with broken ksport/D2 than anything else. Ksport/D2 come from the same factory and they're reliably junk.

There's no reason not to buy progress instead.
