Coilover question

Averdi · 03-02-2014, 12:19 AM

hey guys. i plan on dropping my car but I'm on a budget. i would mainly really like to spend less then $1,000 on coil overs. i would get the ST's but i live in jersey and the salt would tear them up. I've came across solowerks and also FK silver lines for a fair price..anyone have any advice? thanks

solo-werks are zinc plated just like ST. solo-werks=Fk streetlines. FK silverlines are okay (the ones you need for rust resistance)...I would try hard to spring for the adjustable silverlines with koni dampers.
