ST VS Fortune Auto 500's
Hi guys, in a little dilemma here for coilover purchase. ST or Fortune Auto 500's.
Need your option just on between these two coils only. Car is daily driven. I feel the stock ride is pretty firm already. I do not race my car. Might see some track/ back road driving. ST: seems lower spring rate? more like stockish feel. But might rust being I live in VA with salty roads?? Fortune: Pros- front camber adjustment, Full coilovers with damping adjustments. But will the ride to too hard. Thanks |

The ST's are great for a mild lower. If you plan on going much lower, the Fortunes are probably the better choice. Definitely a fan of the stock tops though otherwise they make a lot of noise. I've also read people run the ST's in the northeast with 0 issues so don't let that zinc coating fool you. They're pretty good for their price. |

I was looking at Fortunes, and a few others for about a month.. decided to spend the extra cash and get KW V3s.

I've also been debating between the two.
