Default Best Coilovers

I am revamping my suspension next month and and wondering about coilovers. My 02 tt 225 was already lowered and I had a half kmac kit put in and am planning on the other half cuz it wasn't good enough. I am going to put the 25mm/21mm sway bars in and all bushings and the last part is coilovers. I have tried to do research but i want experienced people giving me advantages and disadvantages of the many types. Money isnt really a problem but i dont was to put 2 grand into just coilovers. ecs has them from 12 to 1500 with the higher end in brands. Any help is great

Even tho my eibachs came without sway bar mounts, I think the material and build quality is awesome. Ride is very nice, but they don't make them anymore I lucked out and got the last pair tire rack had for $440. As far as the best available, I would say Tein. The Japanese build some sweet coilovers.

I have a set of Koni coilovers. They are great on the track & street and never have any mystery noises or creaks. Fronts are easy to adjust, backs need removal. I was also looking into PSS9s.

KW V3's FTW. Practically stole mine from a guy on Audiworld. He had them for sale for 3hrs before I grabbed them for $1400 with 300 miles on them. They go for nearly $2000 new. Compression, rebound, and ride height adjustable, and you can do it all with them on the car.




Link for the Ohlins? Didn't know they had an application for the TT....
