Really you guys can think what you want about Stance's product, but they keep proving themselves:
Ksport also has pictures of their sponsored cars in drifting competitions--so that doesn't necessarily say much either.

Like I said, I don't have an opinion about KSD coilovers--I've never used them, and haven't heard anything bad about them. I suppose it's in response to an earlier post in this thread that said these are the "best bang for buck" coilovers--which implies pricier brands are less cost effective. Didn't intend to post to criticize your selection of coilovers.

Yes it does, cause the K Sport dudes and their cars suck, Whereas I posted a picture of myself drift and other cool/well-known cars.

It is the best bang for the buck though, great performance, great quality, and phenominal customer service... Not to mention...













All of those are pictures of myself or people I know personally enjoying stance coilovers... Great coilovers... The end.

Well i installed mine and drove around for about 2 hours doing errands. I put them all at 8 out of 15 and so far the ride is awesome! A little more firm than stock but totally livable. I was really scared it was going to be horrible judging by everyone's comments but for me its more than good enough.

Nope, never been on there... I've been to Gateway before though, but that's about it.

i love these coils so far, but i am hearing way to many clunk noises, figured out its due to the top nut not being torqued down correctly, i have been trying to torque it while holding the shaft of the coil, but cant seem to get it!! anyone have any suggestions??

Lately mine have been really jittery in the rear, very bouncy. No settings were changed and I took them off and everything seems fine. But its bouncy even on roads that look like glass from my angle so Im curious whats happening.

For performance driving would you go with the Stance Super sports or Apexi n1 EXV?
