5618, coilovers or springs? (and other questions related)
Posted by Mystic511, Jan-13-02 09:59 AM
ok.. i'm really confused right now...
with coilovers, you have to knock off the spring perches right? Is that for all springs or are there springs that are made for coilovers?
And do coilovers handle better then just getting springs? I've heard my friends say that in the end, springs give better handling then coilovers.

Spring perches are what springs sit on. With out them your spring would fall down. With coilovers there is a collar with rings around it and the collar sits on a little o-ring where the perch used to be.

We dont use "real" coilovers so yes springs are better, but if you got a true coilover suspension >$1000 than that would be better.
