KW V3s are good, but I think a little overkill unless you're going to the track a lot, and at that point, I prefer some other options.

HKS Hipermax IV GT coilovers. Thanks I'll look into those. Do you know what spring rates they have?
The BC-golds are 8k/8k
I read this review:
https://www.drifted.com/gt86-coilove...NTixTjG8Zsk1T4
Noticing that the spring rates on the preferred Ohlins (4/3) and KW (6/7) are quite a bit lower.
I hear the people saying raise it up. I have actually raised it up and it made no difference. I don't really understand if coil-overs are wound lower.. the spring still has the same amount of travel why would it make a difference raising it? I'm not bottoming out, it just rides harsh.. even going really slowly over cracks in the road I can feel them.
- Edit just read the above posts. I have wondered if something is wrong with my setup from previous owner. Perhaps the preload or the shocks ruined. Perhaps I should get someone to check it out first. I do hear most people with BC-Gold coils say that they are harsh.
