Coilover set ups.

[RsonGt3's]

Would really like to see what you guys think would be the best company for me to give them my money. Getting new wheels on my 1998 integra in a few weeks just waiting on them to arrive. They will be 16x9 +25 offset. Looking to drop my car, but not slam it. I was suggested to run 205/45/16's by the wheel company so it could cover the wheel gap between the fender, and that way i wont have to slam it and have a shitty ride. Trying to stay under the $750 budget but throw me all the options.

Thanks. All the help will be appreciated, help me make the right decisions IA.

You normally get what you pay for with suspension components, so I would stick to upper level companies, ie stance, bc, kw

Progress. I've got a set on my 98 Civic, I like them just as much as my previous GC setups.

Ground control is close to $1000, but they do give you life time warranty.

What is the difference between the $600 ones and the $1000 ones.

The Series I ($1000 ones) have rebuildable shocks that they can custom valve for you. The lesser expensive ones (Series II) are tuned to the spring rate you order with them. I have the 350/350 set personally.

One thing i like about them is the shock bodies are shorted 60mm compared to stock so you don't lose any shock travel from lowing the car, which also means you don't need extended top hats.

How do they ride? I really don't want a stiff ride.

The 350/350 set is pretty firm but not uncomfortable to DD. I do think they would be your best option since an Integra is a little bit heavier. They do offer a 350/250 set if you want something softer.

I think ill be going with koni/gc and extended top hats. Pricey but i plan on keeping this car for a while so i rather do everything right the first time.

Certainly not a bad set of coil-overs either, I've had that exact same set up on 2 of my cars also. But Progress suspension isn't cutting corners by any means.

I live on a road that most people from Atlanta drive to for mountain runs, so I've got a lot of experience and testing grounds for what works and what doesn't. Both suspension set ups handle remarkably well with a good tire & alignment combo.

Yea I've heard nothing but good things about progress, but koni does give the full lifetime warranty so that kinda sold me.

Nah function and form are garbage. Very few good reviews from them, and you only get one year warranty. Only reason why people get them is because they look cool (shiny colors) and bc they will slam your car to the ground. I have my mind set on gc/koni yellows with extended top hats in the front. Everything shipped to my door will be $899 from Thmotorsports.

D2s, are pretty good too, i have Ksports and they are nice also, if you go with anything lifetime warranty, make sure you read/ask about what's covered and what's not covered under that warranty, Konis are awesome, but i dont get why they are so expensive!
