I always have this question. I know not all peeps care to lowering their cars, but I don't understand why people would go spring-lower but not coilovers, or some go tje other way around.

I just want to know your reason.

Oops, I forgot to share mine.
I take the coilover. I don't race, and I dont push hard on cars. I love lowering because it looks better that way and I know I will suffer from stiffer ride.
I go with coilovers because I know once if my short springs are installed, I will complain it is rather too height of too low, or too firm or too soft.

I know there are maybe some better springs instead of coilovers that can give me better riding experience, but but colover allow me to have more custome high adjustment.

If I go with spring and I don't like them.. there won't be any adjustment available.

My Megan lowering springs cost $117.....I don't race but like a lower firmer ride.

price deters people from coilovers who just want to have a lowered look.

I agree it boils down to price. I just blew my check on Tein Basics and I can't wait to get them on. :wink:
