    good choice but is pointless to have them if ure not going to expand the whole capability of the setup. u can drop the car so low it can almost lay frame with function forms and no matter how low you go the quality of the ride is not going to change and is what i love about mine.

    naw its fine and good parts.. BUT! for the drop your looking for you could have gotten a cheaper coilover with a longer R&D and great quality, like a Eibach kit, or a Ground control,Koni,KYB. if you say you looked at reviews, but if you wanted a subtle drop.. and someone guided you to function & Form, you didnt get good advice....lol But its still a good purchase...you might as well slam it..

    maybe because coilovers were designed for the track and to be adjustable, not to tuck the tires into the fender for a "stance" fad that only half of the car enthusiasts actually thinks look good. fucking dumbass ricer mentality of "only what I think looks good is what actually looks good:

    I personally think cars look better with a little bit of wheel gap, maybe a cm or 2 of black space between the top of the tire and the lower edge of the top of the wheel arch.

    i think what mr. allmota is saying, is the same thing i said, if you want function over form.. the FUNCTION & FORM coilovers shouldnt have been his best choice. They are the "dumbass ricer mentality" choice of suspension....

    I am getting coilovers for my car next week and I am also not slamming my car. Coilovers have so many advantages over any spring strut comobo out there!

    Maybe he has a good reason he wants those specific coilovers? I could get some cheap $700 d2 coilovers but I am choosing to spend more money to get a better setup. Sometimes going the cheaper route isn't the best way to do things, there are some things you can skimp on, but I do not think suspension is one of them!

    having a slammed car isn't the ricer mentality, the ricer mentality was EJ saying that these coilovers are pointless if not slammed. That was a stupid thing to say because he called the thread a "fucking dumb ass thread" just because it didn't fit what he thought looked good. JITB, you know I don't agree with the VIP style, but I don't bash you for it, or say it's wrong, I just say I don't like it. You know I also find myself drooling over half of the threads you post, so don't think I am saying riding low is not correct. But EJ acting like only what he would do with that equipment is the only right thing to do is very close minded and ignorant. So I was saying "fucking dumb ass ricer mentality" to mock "fucking dumb ass thread".

    As for Function Vs. Form Vs. Function AND Form-->Maybe he likes having the options open, and wants to make the resale value of the car better by being able to sell it to the community that'll be able to go the slammed or track route with the same setup.

    Wow, you speak as though you THINK you know me.. watch yaself, my car is on full Coilovers as well.. it allows me the freedom to do as i please, slam my car or raise it up at anytime.. Many have expressed their opinion on his decision to drop bread on these when he could have accomplished his desired ride height for cheaper with the same ride quality.. But you single my comment out, Lol.. when he tracks his car i will make sure i pay homage to him for putting his suspension to "good use".. You then turn and say you like wheel gap, is that not your opinion.. i dont see anyone gettin on you for it, you respond like its your car or as if he is your :idb: .. anyway you do your thing and i will do mine..

    Never did i say they were only good if you were slammed. you read what you wanted to read.. As far as it being a "fucking dumbass thread", it is.. this is the CAR PICS section NOT THE LOOK WHAT I ORDERED FOR MY CAR section.. if he wanted to post the parts he was ordering for his car he should have made a build thread...

    I took you comment "why spend the money if you still going to be rockin wheel gap" as basically "why buy coil overs if you're not slamming a car" which was like saying it's all they're good for. That is why I took your comment to be ignorant for thinking you only buy coil overs to slam a car and why you must think it's the only right thing to do. If you meant, why buy THOSE coil overs when there are better ones for just dropping an inch or so, then you should have worded it like others did.

That is why I took your comment to be ignorant for thinking you only buy coil overs to slam a car and why you must think it's the only right thing to do. If you meant, why buy THOSE coil overs when there are better ones for just dropping an inch or so, then you should have worded it like others did.

    Others as in the other people who worded it properly.If everyone spoke vaguely where their sentences could mean 3 or 4 different things because they're too lazy to type out 3 or 4 lines of coherent, slightly more precise text, then it would be chaotic.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
