help deciding!
ok so, first lets start out with what i use it for. I deliver pizzas, i will be doing a little bit of drag, and some spirited corner driving.
what i am looking for is basically three things:
i want to go lower in the rear (eg coupe) want to tuck a **** hair of my 195/50/15's
along with how low they go i like really really stiff springs.
and lastly reliability,how long are they gonna last, how is the warranty, how is the customer service.
I had a eg hatch as my last car with skunk2 pro2's and i loved how stiff they were, but they would not lower enough in the front, and also with all the bs about signalpuke and blazed, i really dont want another product from junk2 again. I just am using how stiff those coilovers were to what i am looking for now.
these are what i am looking into:
koni/gc with 480f 430r
progress cs2 with 500f 500r
function and form type1/type2
open to suggestions?
these are my issues with my three choices
with koni/gc my only issue is spending a little more than i really wanted, but i dont need to hear its worth it or whatever, these are my first option and my more likely choice
with the progress cs2's i have been looking into these because everyone talks highly of them and they are a great price, but they state that they dont like to be super low, and also i dont have a very good option for spring rates as my next lowest option is a 350 spring.
with the funtion and form i get the stiffness and lowering capability i want, but i basically lose all the performance i should be gaining from a new suspension setup, and also i am wary of buying these solely on the fact that i dont want to have a blown strut 6 months down the road, or even worse have a strut leaking before i even put it on.
Im not trying to slam the hell out of my car i just want a nice reliable stiff suspension (the stiffer the better) that i can tastefully lower my car on.

that is exactly what i am looking for. looks like i just gotta fork out a little more cash... oh well. i need do just buy it and then i will realize how worth it the decision was, and also i think that i will most likely do a 550f 500r instead.
alright i know this is where i was headed i just needed some reassurance. I know i will be happy with the purchase, and i dont really even mind forking out more money, i just am such a tightass with my money over some things, and then waste it on frivolous **** the next day. i will be purchasing a set of koni sports and ground controls with my next paycheck, and i will gladly write about how much i love them when i start driving on them!
