Default can't decide....

ok, im trying to decide on going with coilovers or springs. i know coilovers are adjustable, better paired, yada yada yada....but i am having a hard time justifying 1k v 250bucks. i don't see myself at the track much, if at all anymore (whole nother story in itself), i dont care about ride quality, and want too spend as little as possible. want opinions on the use of just some sport springs for better stiffness and better look. i do want the better handling in the twisties, but again, wont be at the track. losing body roll and pitching would be nice.

justify my choice for me!

anyone ever tried the V-maxx coilovers...seems like a compromise in price, probably not in quality, but thought i'd ask.

if you want to spend as little as possible, just clip your stock springs and weld the ends back on

Yeah you can be ghetto and cut your springs, or just buy springs but that isnt good for your shocks and they will wear much faster.

Either get a spring and shock combo like H&R and Bilstein, or buy coilovers. I really think its worth it to get the COs though. Vogtlands are a good budget coilover for under $1000 IMO
