Coilovers or springs?
« on: 25 January 2012, 20:39 »
Hi,

I brought my car with springs already fitted so I don't really know how it drives without. I find it doesn't stick to the road like my VR6 used to which was lowered on coilovers. I'm considering to swap them with coilovers. Good idea?

Any advice would be helpful

Thanks

Depending on quality of springs and or shocks coilovers maybe better, maybe worse. Personal preference I guess...you can always wind down coilies  :smiley:
