    Default adjustable coil over springs

    hey guys just wondering if these are actuallyany good.
    i like the concept of it but am not 100 percent sure how it all works.
    you would need to jackyour car up eachtime you wanted to change it right?
    And whats the ride like, is it good suspension or really bumpy and what not.

    any help ould be great thanks guys

    Depends on how much you're prepared to spend, really. If your budget is around the 2K mark, you can do better for the money - but if you're prepared to spend 6K+ - go for DMS!

    Personally, i thought about coilover but instead went for springs and shocks and i'm rapt with the result. Are you going to adjust them all the time?
    And as snips said, if you go coilover go something good.
