Coilovers

Who here has coilovers on their car? I am curious as to how coilovers affect ride and handling. I only want to lower my car about 1.5," but it would be kind of cool to drop it 4" if I wanted to. I saw an ad for a new Koni coilover kit, anyone know if its any good? What about Ground Control? I want better handling, but I don't want a terribly rough ride. I can give up some comfort, but I would like to keep my fillings intact. Thanks!!

i have the ground control coilovers and the koni shocks. the ride is freakin awesome and handling is perfect. i would highly reccomend them. i can put you in a that suspension for about $960 at your door.

yup, either a full koni setup or koni w/ GC coils would be good. Tokico isnt a bad brand to look at either, u can go with the tokico strut + GC coil, or the Tokico Illumina-R setup (full coilover)

Ride should be better.

I'm riding on dropzone coils on stock struts.. not fun at all.
