Default Meagan Coils, yay or nay?

So I previously owned an sc300 and I heard nothing but good things about Meagan coilovers for the sc300 platfrom. Now im shopping for a sportcross so I was considering Meagan coils to put on when I purchased it. Are they just as good on the IS300 platfrom?

thanks I plan on getting them. I wish more members were active on the is300 section. It seems like youre the only one putting in work lol. When I had my sc300 I had fun on the forumns because it seemed like almost every minute there was a new thread but on the IS300 section its always dead

We're all at my.is... megan coils are alright if you could save up for some Stance if you want to slam it beyond imagination if you're going for a moderate drop go with the megans.

im actually on my.is with the same username. I just like how clublexus' forums are put together. Much better and neater in my opinion. When I go on my.is I usually just go to the sportx section

Default megan

I went to Stillen about 3 weeks ago because I also want to redo the suspension on my Xcross. From the research I came up w coilovers give you better performance than new springs & shocks but coils are more expensive. Megans are highly rated especially if you want maximum race-track like performance. If you're looking for more of a street ride shocks & springs are the less expensive option. Cheers

I have Tein coilovers & I have no problems with them...
If any coilovers are better than mine I don't think I would really notice the difference that much...
