spring/shock combo vs. coilover POLL

***THMotorsports*** · 07-10-2007, 01:14 PM

I wanted to see how many of you are running which setup.

Post if you are tracking your car with the coilovers or spring/shock combo.

guess i'll be first

I'm guessing most people will have coilovers because there are really no aftermarket struts available for the Civic yet. HFP and Mugen are the only 2 that I can think of.

I'm waiting for Koni.

when i get my suspension, it will be the spring/shock combo

there are no current shocks available on the market...

RedLineSi · 07-10-2007, 02:50 PM

Id go with Coilovers

Toxis · 07-10-2007, 04:33 PM

I have springs but will get Koni's when they come out. Therefore no one really can vote spring/shock combo other than a few who have prototypes...

I'm going with coil overs. Mostly because I know they are matched to each other. But plus if I need to adjust the ride height I can. And the fronts at least have pillow ball mounts.
