[al..]

Hi

still deciding should I get xyz coilover for my ve ss, I see a lot of cars are getting them to get the right perfect stance, and it does look good..

Stock shocks OMG you definitely have to do something about that!

with most people being somewhat budget conscious, what would be reasonable to look at

will they last as long or same as a shock spring combo? I hear they need rebuilding after high km..

They should last as long as any other shock if you just set the ride height and leave it. Raising and lowering a vehicle all the time will cause shock failure but that's the same as change springs all the time and using the same shock.

The cheapest I'd buy are XYZs but I cant say I've looked around at coilovers since i bought mine 2-3 years ago now. From what i've read Pedder's are the biggest waste of money when it come to adjustable coilovers.

XYZs appear to be around $1600. Ksports have a good rep in the states and there base kit is $1000 but you want the shock dampering adjustment and well as the spring/ride height adjustment.

Sounds like you need shorter shocks not stock length.

When jack up car do springs drop & rattle on strut?

For daily driver/streeter I prefer standard strut top,no noise or harshness
If lowered just dont go crazy & get shorter shocks & it will ride fine.

Who needs shorter shocks? Using quotes help us know which post your referring to. If it's towards me, then that was only an example any not really about the original post, but used to demonstrate why a adjustable coilover would have a shorter life span.
