So i just sold some stuff and got some quick cash and my original plan for the car was to buy some Koni coilovers. However, i do have a little more money than i thought so should i splurge for the vogtland or H&R's? The car is mainly street driven but onyl because i havent started racing yet. i plan on doing alot of auto x events in the spring/summer along with a few runs at the strip.. which would be best?

Koni - $987
Vogtland - $1089
H&R - $1215

 

I hear good things about the latter two...

One of the nice things about the Konis is that you can get them rebuilt and revalved, so as your preferences and emphasis change over time, you can get update your shocks to match new spring rates. Not suggesting that one manufacturer is better than the other, just adding a little food for though.

GO with the Voglands, there great!

It's not a "track" setup, but a real nice street setup.
I've been very happy with mine.

 

I'd go with a higher end coil-over for a few bucks more the H&Rs are awesome, I had a set on my M3 and loved them. Also heard many good things about the vogtlands. And they are only a few bucks over the Koni's.

 

i've got a set of the h&r coilovers. i love them... that's my two cents

 

Vogtlands use Koni Shocks, Koni uses Vogtland Springs. I think Vogtland uses a higher-end spring in their kit that's a little lighter, and thus the cost differential.

Personally, I'd go with the Stasis Street Sport/Konis and trust their expertise in setup. They're a hundred buck more than the straigh konis and $300 less thatn the Vogtlansds. Spend the difference on a good performance alignment (more negative camber in front, but a little less tire life traded for better turn-in and front grip) and corner weighting. You'll have to find a race shop to do the setup, definitely not your average alignment place.

With coilovers, and all their adjustments, setup is what it's all about. Koni, Vogtland, KW, Bilstein,and H&R are all high-end coilovers by any standard.
