Megan Coilover questions?

Looking for an inexpensive way to lower my car, and ride better than springs, daily driver looking for 1.5 of drop on a budget

I have found 2 coilovers made by Megan

The Euro Street series -

And the EZ series, which is much cheaper-

Any input on the EZ series?

I've never used any Megan's, but I hear the EZ is softer than stock on a lot if models. The body is only 46mm (most are 50, and the ones I make are 57mm).

Why not the racing series? Comfort wise they're about as comfy as stock but bumps performance.

We sell both of them and they are pretty much the same. Just that the EZ streets have less valving adjustment and no camber plates. So depending on how you adjust the rebound you can make them ride almost exactly the same.

Must have been a price increase lately. I bought mine ( the ones with the camber plates ) from Way for what the cheaps are going for now...
Shop around and get the ones with the camber plates while your doing it...
