they're height adjustable springs..
the screw part on the bottom adjusts the spring to sit higher or lower on the shock.. which in turn makes you have a higher or lower ride..
also known as coilover sleeves
thats what i thought, so then, with say the skunk2 ones what shocks would you have to use inorder to fit them? or can they go on any shock? thanks
any shock..
you can even use stock shocks..
they're just like normal springs.. you can place them on any shock you want..
that helps a lot, thanks man, but as say a recommendation what shocks are good just for street driving? or should i start searching here :angel:
have a look around..
people recommend koni's, as they're a comfortable ride..
but personally i haven't tried them..
but have a look around, some of the traders sell shocks so check them out there..
just dont buy cheap ebay coilover sleeves.
if u do a search in teh suspension section, there are alot of bad reviews about coilover sleeve springs. ppl say, on teh straight, they're good. but in the corners, they are shiiiittt.
the only proven consistent performer are the Groudn Control Coilover brand sleeves. They use their patented sleeve with Eibach springs. However they are VERY expensive ~AUD$650 deliverd from the states as quoted by a previous trader. GCC are also used in certain amateur competition in the USA.
=D jsut got my rims to day cost 1.7k T.T so broke but i havent lowered my car, i realise coilovers do cost a bomb. but i was told that by simply changing hte psrings to lower the height around say 3/4 of an inch would make little difference on my shocks, that is b/c i do mainly daily driving and little racing anyway do you guys reckon its enough? im just worried cause i was reading threads and ppl say the coilovers can easily bottom out :O if not buying springs is a option im looking at at the moment
