What coilovers?

[keeno]

I'm looking to get myself a set of coilovers in the new year. The car is used everyday on irish roads so they'd have to take a fair bit of hacking.
Just looking for advice on what would be a good set to go for

tein super streets are meant to be great for everyday driving, not to harsh.if you do a search you'll get some great info.

to be honest mate if the car is for everyday driving then stay away from coilovers as there a pain in the head there far too rough for the roads over here.go for a good set of dampers and springs.

yeah the main reason I'm looking for coilovers is cuz I've lowering springs on my yoke and she'd rattle the teeth out of your head and my mates after getting a type r civic with cusco coilovers and she sits lovely and is well smoother than mine on the road.

Any sort of some-way hard suspension in a car on Irish roads it a total nightmare!!

My Teins aren't too bad on bumpy roads. But it still hops all over the place

Civics are much smoother on the road lad,its the starlet itself thats bumpy because its light

bc racing are good, dave burwash sells them on here mate! some job! i have a set in the 200sx very impressed

There are 8 differents D2 models that comes in many different spring rates.
The one that every one get are the cheapest one without choosing proper spring rates. that is why many are dissapointed...
for bumpy roads you should get rally gravel specs with soft springs. they are heavy duty and comfy

BC Racing coilovers are great for abit of a softer ride and very affordable, we sell these at fantastic price's, Also we're launching another range soon which we're currently testing and there very promising!

tein super streets get my vote

coilovers are only as good as the person who sets them up. This topic has been covered loads of times. My wife has tein superstreets on her GT and very comfy handles well seems boat like compared to my D2's which I have set very hard but they can be setup very good to be comfy too unlike the wife's tein which don't have preload adjustment! just height and damper ! its down to personal preference If you go low and hard expect harsh ride if you go at reasonable height less preload and a good damper setting you'll find D2's fine for any roads.

Koni adjustble shocks with standard springs

Toyota got it right!!!!

Best road setup, ever! Fact!
