initially i was planning on going with a shock/ spring set up and read tons of good reviews about the koni/ tein setup... after realizing the price was pretty much the same as tein basics i was wondering if i should just go with the tein coilovers.....
any opinions would be awesome- especially the track/suspension guru's

sorry to hijack but I'm about to buy new shocks, and can ride height be changed using the Konis?

^ dont think so but dont quote me on it..
for those voting for the basics can you shed some light? ex if you track the car and how often
as for the the tein s/h tech springs... i know they lower the car but do the konis themselves lower the car further?

No. Only rebound is adjustable.
