Coil overs vs Koni yellows and King spring
Hey all, On my ek4 sedan, I've been running king spring lows and stock shocks for about 6 years +. I'm biting the bullet and looking at either coliovers or just installing Koni yellows to mate with the springs.
From the outset I've done many a hour researching coilovers and reading reviews etc. Whilst I know many on here prefer coilovers I've done some research on them from local stores in Melb and summarised as follows:
A local tyrepower owner who i know, tell me that coilovers are not worth getting as they are too hard and bone jarring ride on a street car. He said that every time they were adjusted you'd have to do a wheel alignment on them. He suggested I should just buy Koni yellows with a cost of $1150.
A specialist suspension place suggested going BC BR coilovers for $1800 installed or just the Koni yellow for $1100
Another specialist suspension place tells me that they don't stock coilovers and just go the Koni yellows for $1150
A performance place here in Melbourne offer to install BC BR coilovers for $1600 or install XYZ branded coilovers for around $1500.
So question is what is the general consensus for just street driving do I go coilovers in particular BC BR or stick with the Koni yellow / King Spring combo, on a budget of $1500 - $1800 installed ?
Thanks
