Lowering Springs or Coilovers!

[cB7jT]

Which is Better?

[illestatus]

it depends, which brands do you have in mind? also what type of shocks are you using?

[fatboy1185]

Personal preference. Coilovers give you adjustability. There is a lot of good suspension reviews on here. Read around for a bit before you make your decision.

i would say springs are more for comfort and coilovers are more for track and being slammed. depends what you want.

Please stop being too lazy to type correctly.


If you're wanting to "slam" it, you'll obviously want coilovers.

i payed 500 for my springs and shocks and i wish i coulda saved a little more to get coilovers, i say go coilovers so u can adjust the height u want

[mndude07]

I'm willing to bet a Ground control/Koni yellow setup would outperform just about any coilover available for the cb7, provided the shocks are properly valved and the ground controls have suitable spring rates.

yup yuppp!! I got Ground Control Coil-Overs an they're the jam! get yourself some coil-overs and you wont be disappointed.

if you are talking about functionality then coilovers...as they are designed for functionality

if you just want to slam your ride...lowering springs.

Sure there are some ok ones...but they are lowering springs and they are not meant to give you the "raceable" ride that coilovers are generally designed for.

lowering springs = looks
coilovers = function

NOW...there ARE "coilover" knockoffs...and some really cheap ass coilovers...but in general, true coilovers will give you much more performance capabilities than lowering springs. Plus...their shocks are designed around the height alterations...lowersprings...not so.

For FULLY adjustable coilovers don't expect to spend less than a grand, more likely over $1500. Or you can get neuspeeds super cup kit which has only 3 height adjustments, but is a very good suspension setup for around 600. But FULLY adjustable...VERY pricey.

I'm sure the OP means cheap springs or cheap sleeves. In which case, neither.

Get yourself quality components.



Ah, what's the use... this kid is clearly too lazy to bother following anything I have to say. He won't even read my usual rant, because it's more than 3 sentences long and uses big words. Good luck kid. I'm not saving this one.
