Best coilovers for the price?
ok first of all i'm a noob when it comes to coilovers(like wtf is a. Offset, camber etc.?)
I used the "search" and came to a conclusion that the stance gr+ and tein ss-p are most popular..
But I couldnt find out which is probably the best bargain.
Im on a tight budget and 1350 is pushing my limits. I currently have a "hook up" for the Megan LP coilovers for 900 cash. So I guess im leaning towards those atm..
But my question is, is there a better bargain below 1350??
Im never gonna track my car and I occassionaly go to the canyons. I have a 2010 g37s sedan as my daily(LA driving) and would prefer a smooth ride.
Im currently leaning towards the megans but still got the tein ss-p, stance gr+, kw v1 and tanabe sOc.
Not hating on megan but im just skeptical of the brand quality:/
Thx in advanced

Somewhat depends on how low you want to go and how stiff of a ride you go with. And of course everyone has their different opinions for just a daily.
BC is a good balance with value if you want and even though related to Megan better from what I have heard.
SSP's are a step up from there and then kw after that.

$1350 will get you a brand new set of Tein SSP which is better than BC/megan (these two are really the same). I have the SSP and the ride is pretty damn smooth and handling is on point. Another plus with the SSP is that you can later on treat yourself to the EDFC (Electronic Dampening Force Controller) which allows you to adjust dampening from inside the car.

Totally agree on the ssp or if you want to go best kw. It all depends on "for the price" and what you are willing to spend. Plus the lower you are the more the need for stiffer dampening which takes away definitely from the smoothness especially on some of the brands.
That being said everyone has a different opinion about this and besides wheels it is probably the most debated subject on the forum.

One more month and my budget will be around 1350 n max around 1500.
Sigh after I get the coils I know ima want rims... This girl came to me today saying she liked my car but it needs a drop n rim-_-
