If i lower my car on adjustable coilovers, would i need to get aftermarket struts? Or could i just buy the coilovers and call it a day?
So correct me if i'm wrong, but you have just lowering springs on your suspension that's all? cause i was considering buying skunk lowering springs and just leaving everything stock..yeah i had just some 50 dollar DNA springs on my stock shocks and the ride was a little bouncy which i didnt care due to the fact that i like bounce when a car is lowered
Nobody likes a bouncy caryeah i had just some 50 dollar DNA springs on my stock shocks and the ride was a little bouncy which i didnt care due to the fact that i like bounce when a car is lowered
I have skunk2 coil over sleeves on toykico blue struts. At the time I didn't realize the toykico blue where OEM replacements. I hate how my car rides. I'm saving up now for koni yellows. I wish I done this in the first placeSo correct me if i'm wrong, but you have just lowering springs on your suspension that's all? cause i was considering buying skunk lowering springs and just leaving everything stock..
Not true at all. Ground control, skunk2, and plenty of other brands are good coilovers. They're just sleeves. Then you choose the shocks you want. What you're referring to is a full bodied coilover. Where its the shock and coilover together.If you are talking real coilovers they come with springs and struts. If you are talking about cheap ass coilover SLEEVES then no you don't technically need new struts but you should. Then again, I wouldn't go with sleeves to begin with.
Lol. I know the difference between a coil over and a coil over sleeve. My opinion/statement still stands. I would never buy a coil over sleeve. Save up more and do it right and get a real coil over system or a lowering spring and shock combo. In the end you will do it the right way so why do it twice and throw money away?Not true at all.

Personalaly I prefere a sleeve. The strut goes bad you replace the strut. The spring goes bad replace the spring. With a 1 peace you need to replace the hole thing witch in return will cost more.Lol.

Just because you got the car for cheap doesn't justify buying cheap parts. Not saying ground control is a cheap brand per say but you can't use that kind of thinking when you want to modify a vehicle as a hobby. You aren't the only one that thinks that way unfortunately. It is VERY common and not just reserved for civics....But in your defense a high end coiliver is the best but in my case cost more then what I paid for my car...
