The website I am trying to buy them from wants to know if I have a "pepper s coupe 2door" or a "hot chilli s hatch back 2 door" or a "salt s hatchback 2 door" or a "sidewalk s hatchback 2door" I am confused... I have a 2009 Mini Cooper S its chilli red but don't see how that has anything to do with my suspension... Any know wth the website is talking about?? Help!!!

Chili, Pepper and Salt are the names of options packages for UK MINIs. Sidewalk was an options package for Convertibles.

What site are you looking at?

Most those packages weren't even avail in the US, but at the same time they shouldn't matter for coilovers.

Check out our selection we should have what you need or if you need a recommendation we can help. Also get FREE shipping this week.

Our site is pretty easy to naviagate. You can look at what coil over options we have for your MINI HERE. I highly suggest the ST coil overs as they're a very good bang for your buck coil and they're manufactured by KW. If you need anything or have any questions be sure to let me know.

You were totally right I contacted the people on the website they had me refresh the page and then the regular mini Cooper two door hatchback option popped up since then I have ordered the coil overs and already have gotten them now it's time to figure out how to install them LOL

I myself have been looking into the ST coilovers, but as far as i could tell by reading the description they don't have any dampening options...

VS. my old coils which were D2 RS' which has 32 levels of dampening + ride heigh adjustment - I looked up a set of ST's and they had ride height adjustment but nothing else... no camber plates/pillow ball mounts or anything...

Was i looking up the wrong set?
