Tracksports or Vogtlands are best bang for the buck IMO

Default they're pretty soft unless cranked to the "1" settting

there has been extensive debate over the rest of the settings doing anything from 2-9, i cant tell a difference in those settings either, but overall, they are pleasant on long rides and fine around town when not turned to 1

the best way to tell, is going to be riding in/driving cars with different suspension setups, talk to your local shop and see if they can arrange some rides or talk to people on here and check some cars out

I've got some lightly used Eibach Pro S coilovers that I'd let go for cheap. Only ~3k miles on 'em

Default 3rd

Although, the springs have settled an add'l .5-1 cm after taking these pictures, I think I am a tad too low, already rubbing too much....

I love the ride quality, even on some of the poorer NJ roads, much less nose diving on braking, and abality to take turns just a bit quicker, whilst feeling more connected....
