Tein basic is a good daily coilover and also Megan makes a good daily coil over also. As far as websites, you might want to search the dealers in this forum. They often times have good deals for coilovers and can also help you decide on what coilovers to buy.! Hope this helps.

heeltoeauto should be having a tax return special going on right now on TEIN Basics/SS. I highly recommend them. I ran BC Coilovers and were fairly stiff for my preference as a DD. Tein SS in my buddy's car have been great.

I have had Tein SS and H&R, and to me H&R is better for the money as you can ge them on tirerack.com for under $1000. They have bilstein dampers and H&R progressive springs, the teins are linear springs. They both ride similar, but for $400-$500 ess the H&R are better in my opinion.

I have heard good things about Megan, even though they are quite a bit cheaper. I wanted to go with F&F type I, but I have heard bad things about them...

"Best" is subjective. What are you looking for in a coilover? Contact us and we will make a recommendation.

If you don't need control over the settings of the dampers and want an OEM feel, get the TEIN Street Basis coilovers. They're very affordable and TEIN is known for their great build quality.

I'm going to go against the coilover crowd and say Koni Sport dampers, pick your choice of springs - H&R, Eibach, etc. Esp if you do not need height adjustment and you're just going to set and forget.

What he said.

My suggestion is biased because I prefer having ride height adjustability. The snow can pile up here in Toronto, and I always raise and lower the car before and after the winter respectively.
