While getting my car aligned today I discovered that my front strut was leaking severely. Instead of replacing it with another strut I figured I might as well go with some coilovers. I was thinking of getting the H&R street coilover kit. This is my daily driver and I want to lower it for astetic purpose and to have new struts. Does anyone have experience with the HR coilovers?

 

Some opinions on it:

Have at it.

 

Great info!

Now I am leaning towards Megan coilovers since they are more adjustable and is in my price range of $900 shipped.

 

just a thought...how bout the Tein ones?i know they arent as heavily marketed as the others but if you spend a bit more you can get the EDFC kit which allows you to remote adjust the dampening force

 

Thanks for the suggestion yellowbritishrocket but my budget was in the 800's. The tiens seem like a great option but cost more than what I would like and probably have too many features that will not be of use to me on the streets.

 

If you sneak around and find reviews on the Tiens, general opinion is they ride super harsh. Granted, ride quality is a subjective thing but still something to consider.

 

Anyone have info or reviews on Megan? I am about to place an order today.

 

First, give AutoXCooper a call or a PM. He seems to be #1 when it comes to Megans. Here's pretty much the best thread regarding Megans. 8 Pages worth of posts on them.

I've seen some shock dynos of the various brands of coilovers on various forums and have not been impressed with the quality control and the damping curves. I'd definitely go for H&R or one of the more respected brands if budget allows. Like all things in life - you get what you pay for.
