Decent affordable coilovers

[Simply_the_best]

I've had zero problems with these and I really push my car. AutoX, Circuit track, and on the daily. There are people that have KW's that run $2,400 and break.

Please carefully READ the part where I said "I have a set of D2 Racing Circuit Series..." These are the RS Series that are for sale which are the STREET version of the ones that I own.

I'm not bad mouthing anyone. Just stating you spend money on a decent set of coilovers that break. Most people hear of other companies that make coilovers and are scared because they aren't BC, Stance, Tein, KW, RS-R, etc.

@B-R-Z:

Since someone is so adamant on talking sht on KW...

My advice and to be blunt ..don't buy those "D2"s. Or better, do research..and then you'll figure out on your own what's quality and will not buy them.

There's a reason why someone needs to overhype them. Idk about you, but all the praise from one person about generic coilovers would is a red flag and make me suspicious....especially about coilovers with no good real reviews. Seems very suspicious and like someone is trying to trick/scam you.

Listen to others. There's a reason why you will read more than one (actually, several) person recommending the same coilovers (RCE, KW, Bilstein)...and that is because they're proven and good.

Summary - stick with something high quality (KW, RCE, Bilstein..or even Tein, HKS, etc.). Avoid cheap generic coilovers that are super cheap and too good to be true. (there's a reason why they are super cheap, but yet with so many features)

In a few words - You get what you pay for.

With Bilstein B14's at $1000, it boggles my mind why anyone would go for the other lower quality brands like BC, D2, and Megan for the same price. For quality, reliability, and durability for a daily driver, the Bilstein B14 should be a no-brainer.

If someone put a set of D2 coilovers and a set of Bilstein B14 on 2 different cars, and then inspected them after 3-5 years of DD use ...I will put money on the B14 that they will still be working fine, fully operable and in good condition..while the D2's will be corroded, blown and/or broken.

Yes...it's a bargain. I think the B14 retail is truly $1500 of engineering/quality (unlike some other generic coilovers that post high retail just to lure you in and trick you); but I bet they just lowered it because the market is heavily saturated.

I'd easily choose B14 if my budget was $1k....but I want to save a bit more and go for the T2 or R&T.

I may go bilstein, my buddy ran them for 3 years on his S2000 then sold them to a mutual friend who is still using them, total of ~10+ years.

Everyone is suggesting coilovers. I have not heard anyone once suggest a Koni and an RCE yellow combo. Probably close if not compairible to the B14 without the height adjustability (rather single adjustable) or SS coating, for a similar price.

Because if you read the OP's post you would know that he wants to be able to adjust the height between summer and winter. You can't do that with Koni's and RCE yellows.
