There's over 30,000 cars alone in MY2013 which is a large enough market for me to consider.

how do you know half of the owners are not looking for coilovers? I don't mean to down talk any owners but the majority I see at car meets do not know the differences between BC and Ohlins... they see coilovers as the stiffer the better, and the cheaper the better as long as they get the results they want. most of those owners are also not on the forums. with that mindset, I highly doubt they would spend more for a set of lowering springs/shocks than they would if they wanted your average BC, D2, Megan, etc.
however, this is all my opinion and I have not been to everywhere in the US so I don't know what it's like in other places. but as you said, selling a handful is better than selling nothing so that's also a good outlook to have. I just do not know if your option would be competitive in the market especially when you have not established a reputation yet for that combo package.
