How do Apexi WS coilovers compare to stock ITR suspension?
Heres a question for you guys who have tested out Apexi World Sports coilovers ...How do they feel compared to stock ITR suspension? Are they more/ or less stiff? Hows the overall feel? Any input will be appreciated.
I had them on my civic a while back, to tell you the truth they were kinda gay... I would look for something better
It was not stiff enough when you take corners it would dip and rubb on the fender. Also my car was not even that low at the time.
I have them on my itr right now for a street setup. They are a little more stiff than stock , but not by much. They are 8K in the front and 3K in the back. I definitely would not use them on any track. I lowered the car a little more than a quarter inch and I am happy with it for the amount that I paid.
You will notice it's a little stiffer. Like if you hit consecutive bumps in a road you will feel it more. But it does seem as though the car is not as balanced as it was. I might try swapping spring to see if there is much of a difference. My only advice would be to not dump the car on this suspension you will bang up everything. When I had it at .5 inch lower in front and rear it was rubbing while turning, so I'd hate to see what would happen if you slammed it.

thanks for the responses guys. i ran into an awesome deal and was wondering how they compared to stock ITR suspension. As long as they are AS stiff or stiffer, I am going to buy it.
