Coilovers
Hey guys I'm new to this just wanting to get some input I've been lookin around the forum and saw a setup that was running Megan ez coils but didn't know how good they where. They looked awesome but I was wondering if someone with some experience could help me out and explain which coils are a like stock ride. Also how coils even work regarding stiffness and softness and what not. Just trying to get some education before I go break the bank.

This comes down to what you are willing to spend really..than you can choose a brand you want to go with. Megans are cheaper but not a bad set of coils for the cost. BC Racing is pretty popular. BC goes for around 1k and Megans Range 6-850 I believe. Then you have stance, Rsr, tien, function form, I would figure out ur price first

I used to have the Megan LP's and loved them, but after I got aftermarket wheels and lowered it more, they were not stiff enough for me. I now have BC's with custom spring rates and have very little rubbing issues. I'd say go for BC's with high rates if you're planning on going low and flush

Thanks guys I'm going to go look into te builds and stuff. Now I know I sound like a complete idiot but Isn't I the stiffer the coils the harsher the ride?

Yes, but they are fully adjustable. You will need to choose springs rates. 12/10 is what i went with. BC Racing run about 1k maybe a little more. Those will prolly be your best bang for your buck IMO. I was turned off by megans description of the ez coils. As it stated "Our most recent addition to our expansive coil-over kit line up, the EZ STREET coil-over line up is aimed towards the more budget oriented enthusiast to offer the most basic essentials from an after-market coil-over setup, yet makes no compromises for quality and performance." To me they even admit its cheap which id rather them lie and claim its made of great quality, makes me think they cut corners.. But thats just my thought and opinion
