tired of my coilovers
hey guys i have been running jic magic flt a2s for about 2 years, i like the drop they gave my car but i feel like they are not helping the handeling a lot, or as much as i expected. and over the last few months they started making some noises in the rear, im having someone look at it this weekend to see if he can fine tune the set up so i might be sticking with them in the end, heres what i am looking for though, something that will still let me drop the car up to 2 inches all around, i dont want anything crazy stiff bc 99% of the time this cars on the street, not a race track, in the past i always bought super stiff suspension and tried to make all my cars track machines but i never really go to the track, so i have wised up and realize i dont need the best handling suspension and am looking for something that will ride not so hard but still handle good. thanks guys

thanks guys, i was also thinking about kw, but they might be too much for the street
They are some of the most comfortable coilovers i've ever driven on. Plus they are the factory suspension on the Mercedes CLK63 Black Edition.
IMO lowering the ride height too much will affect your ride quality and handling especially on the street. I wouldn't "slam" the car on any suspension setup, but taste's differ...
I don't think you could go wrong with the V3s.
PSS9s are pretty good too.

The KW's are very reasonable on the street for someone who is used to driving race cars ^^^
Seriously though, they are a great suspension and very streetable. For someone who does track/street driving I highly recommend them. For someone who does mostly street driving the PSS9 may be the better choice?
