Does anyone have experience with PSS10/RIDECONTROL one? Do they worth the extra money? Thx

I'm thinking of running 2 in the front and 3 in the rear. logic being that i'm putting it on a e93 and with the top down the dampeners need to be stiffer in order to compensate for the weight? What do you guys think? Am i getting it wrong?

Hehe in 10/9

your running 10/9?! must be rough!

[scflaw]

Not to thread jack but these coils are f'ing amazing. Rides better than stock and handles very well on its softest setting. Can't wait to crank it up!

I like it rough!! But not that rough as I thought it would be, feels the road a lot better

I personally wouldn't mind a firmer ride, but having my wife in the car most of the time. I gotta compromise a bit of fun. Having said that, 2/3 makes my car handle pretty well already.

I agree, 3/2 is pretty responsive for me atm, going over bumps doesn't seem to be much of a hassle. i want to crank it up one day to see how well these babies handle

Try AP coilcover, german made, as OEM of KW V2, Just around $9-$10K, unbeatable value for money

You can call "Asia" for more detail, they have promotion now.

Personally i don't trust taiwanese product on german car.

you gotta try it to believe it, BC are amazing value for money, many audis use them now, i used them on my mini and it was so much better than the sachs high-low coilover kit.

I think suspension is really important. It defines how the car handles and feels. I would use taiwanese rims and lamps, but kind of skeptical on coilovers...

rims are very important too >.> shouldnt use taiwanese then if its in your case....

anyways, u have to try it to believe it, it has a very good ride and not far from pss10 and kw v3 which i happen to own both, the BC is better on golf gti than with pss10 too.

BC makes forged rims too so i dont think there are any reliability issues as they are a big company

How many fingers can you stick between fender and tire with the highest setting? I can put 2 fingers between fender and tire with the 'lowest' setting of my Öhlins.

On my e93 i have 1.5 fingers front at highest it can be set and the rear i have around 1 finger.

Your E93 should look pretty good with 1.5 front. Mine is 2 fingers front at lowest setting and 1.5 rear at middle setting. Guess PSS10 comes with shorter springs.

Yup i love it, looks aggressive but not so much as to get pulled over by cops =) its sometimes a bit low for underground garages, gotta put it in sloooow.. and some speed bumps scrape the undercarriage but over all its fine 98% of the time.
