Default rear coilovers

How much better are they? I am going to do a custom rear setup in my car and dont know which way to go. I am going to have a custom TA and panhard bar built. I see alot of cars with coilovers on the back of the axle. I just want something different. I dont want answers like you can go fast on stock sus.

We don't use them on our Pro Cars for no reason. Most tunable, simple, basic set up you can use. I only have 4 link & ladder bar cars, but they work. Very efficient, cost effective. My opinion.

i think they do it when they mini tub them so a 12" wheel with a 10.5W tire will fit.... and in some/most classes its still considered "stock suspension".

i like the idea of them because it frees up space and has to work pretty decent.
