What is the difference between coilovers and springs. I just lowered my accord 2 inches with lowering springs. Before i did i was asked if i was going to get coilovers or springs. Whats the difference?

 

if you are talking about those cheap coil over, they are what we called sleeve over or adjustable spring, it allows you to set the ride height but you end up a bouncy/bumpier ride because the shorter spring they used in coil over

if you compare the coilover spring with a full set lowering spring you can tell you give up about 1/4/1/5 of the total height of the spring. Since solid metal doesnt absorbe the bounce, your butt gonna take the hit instead.

need more info? just use the im feature

 

Adjustability --- coilovers

Ride quality --- springs


Both -- full coil-strut set up..or spring strut set up
