Okay guys, i have done some brief conversation with a few people but im looking for coilovers that will last past 15k miles maybe even 30 or 40 (but certainly longer if at all).

heres the thing... i dont plan on being "Legit Slammed" unless its on a rare occasion for a Photo Shoot... but i also dont want to spend the money just for them to break in a years time. also adjustablility will be considered but who has had what and for how long so i can get an idea which coilover setup will be best "bang for the buck" and Pros vs cons would be great too once they've been broken in

this should also be helpful for newer members who are looking into a good coilover setup. :hide:

anyway please post those who have had theres anywhere from say 1 year of driving up to 6 years of driving on theres (or more)... Please and Thank You

So basically you decided that you don't want ebay coils and would like a legit brand...

Read the suspension review thread. Tein or D2 seem perfect for you

Can't speak about reliability for any brand I haven't owned personally. I put about 80k miles on Tein SS with no issues though. A Tein USA tech at SEMA had once told me to expect 70-100k miles before needing a rebuild.
