Honestly i do, i think it is the answer for a lot of people especially if they have never had coilovers. You get the NVH advantages of stock upper mounts but you get the adjustability of a well made coilover body, Koni damping, and get to pick your own spring rates or let GC pick them for you depending on your wants and needs. All for a couple hundred more than the $1k options that aren't really made for your car.
KW is nice too but roughly $500-700 more depending on where you get them. |

Ground Controls are looking like a great option for DD. Still holding out for Eibach to see their specs & price before I buy though.

Their valving and separate rebound and compression. I'm sure the full GC are nice too. My only gripe with the KW's, for my Supra in this case, is that it uses the oem uppper mount and needs to be modified.

Even at 2300 bucks with bar and plates and Koni, what else is there? Buddy? No. Fortune? No. Kw run about as much for just the coil overs as the gc kit. Eibach? Nah. If for 1400 you get this, well, seems no brainer vs whatever else at this price point... |

If it's just cause you want adjustability for tracking and also camber adjustability and your wallets thick enough go for Ohlins R&T or JRZ coil overs ![]() Lawdy knows I'd love me some Ohlins other things just keep getting in way of experimentation funds.

Ok height understood now lol. But aside from that are you just feeling you need the adjustability or camber? I think you need a 4x4 truck actually lol.
