Which coilover's to get?

Welp, racking my brain on which coilovers to get, here are my choices to minimize:

Megan Racing (Which model do you have/use)
Stance (Again, which model do you have/use)

I am looking for something moderately priced, with adjustability and dampning force adjustments. I am not looking to drop 16-2500 on KW's at this point in time.....but have heard good things on both Megan and Stance products.

Lemme know your thoughts boys!

I'm on the new Megan coils (dont know model) and love the adjustability (30 pts of dampening)....having an issue with the rear passenger side though making a "clank" noise. I've taken them off and inspected them but no apparent issue. Raul had a similiar sound on his too. All in All, great for the price.

Have heard great things about the Stance GR+. I have BC Racing and they're great for the price, but will try out KW V3 or Tein Flex next.

IMO FTW!
KW-V3s if you want to drop it very low and maintain a firm or Cadillac like ride. This suspension is a hybrid street track and can be tuned for tracking within hours. Compression, Rebound, Height adjustments. Read more here:KW coilover Variant 3 /// Coilovers with State-of-the-art technology from motor sports They average $2,000 but worth every single penny!

^^ lol.....well, once I get my pricing on Stance coils, I will make my decision. Looking at the Stance GR+, i do believe that they have the upper camber mount (vs buying an SPC control arm)

Sorry but upper camber mounts do nothing for our cars. You'll need camber arms anyway.

I have the Stance GR+ and love'm! Not as popular as the Megan's or BC's and is a couple hundred $$ more. I chose the Stance cuz at one point, the other two had issues and didn't want to take a chance and deal with the headaches. First link is my car, the other is a G35 dropped on Stance also...

Really? Then what is the point of having the camber mounts on the coils?
