    Which coilovers for ZHP?

    Well the time has come to refresh my suspension so I've decided that I want to go with a set of coilovers but I'm not sure which would be the best fit for me. Right now, I'm looking at the ST V1's or spend a little more for KW V1/2's or Bilstien PSS10's. I'm not looking to slam my car, just a decent drop to close the wheel gap and something that will be good for autox & daily duties.

    Any recommendations?

    There are a few of us who went with BC Racing "BR-series" coilovers and are pleased with them..... Gary (WOLFN8TR) made a thread about the BC Racing coilovers. I just don't remember where it is but you can send him a PM about them

    Nope, the only ones I've really looked at were the ones listed but I'll check those out as well. How do they ride?

    Perfect, I'll shoot him a pm. Have you ran any other coilovers besides the BC BR's?

    i've not tried them (yet) on the ZHP, but i had a set of ST (KW v1) coilovers on my Audi A4 Avant (B5 chassis) and loved them. rear spring rate was too soft, but that was the only complaint.

    Yeah, I've heard nothing but good things about KW and ST products. I had a set of KW V2's for my previous ZHP but I sold the car before I installed them so I was thinking of going back to KW.

    I have a guy that can get the ST's for $860 shipped brand new so those are at the top of my list right now.

    I have had BC Racing coils on my ///M for 3 years before installing another set on my ZHP last year. I have been pleased with how these sets performed during daily/spirited driving. The road by where I live has deteriorated to a point that there are many bumps and dips in the road and these coilovers handle them without any issues. If you went to my project threads for both cars you will see just how low I have them set and still I have no issues driving (well... the sig pic below shows my ///M as it sits today). For the money, you can't beat these coilovers

    How do you like that set up?
