Alrighty…
This is my review of the SPL coilovers after having them for about a month...
First reaction of getting them was major bling bling. Looked very sturdy and well built. IMHO, you can not get better coils for the price these are going for.
Currently I am running these on the 2nd notch from the softest for daily drive and the ride is very comfortable.
I mean as far as coilovers go…. These are stiffer than my stock shocks and Eibach springs by like 1000 times. I turned up the stiffness on the shocks to about 3 notches from the hardest setting and under daily roads, it was uber stiff…. I’m sure I would have gotten used to it BUT, I know I don’t want to run like that every day.
What I do know from that experience is that these will be great on the track.. Unfortunately I have not gotten a chance to drift on these but I will pretty soon enough and I will do another review of these then.
My over all opinion on these is that they are very very very built in quality and looks. They are a great set of coilovers if anyone is in the market to get some. The level of dampening is great for daily drivers whoa re worried about the stiffness. You can adjust to your liking.
Let me know if you have any questions regarding these what so ever
OH, and I love the fact that I don’t have to pop my hood to adjust the dampening for the front!!!! So I can just run out and change the setting if I don’t like… which I did to dial in the level of comfort for my daily drive!!!!!!!
