I don't service them. I know UMI doesn't. But they can be, I bet if you just reach out to UMI they can arrange a rebuild pretty easily.

Does anyone know what spring rates the Ridetech coilovers use? I don't see that mentioned.

There "doesn't" seem to be that much of a differents between them that I can see. Is their +'s/-'s to each?

(Please, no pissing contest!!!)

I have tried the cheaper Koni's orange shocks, they are ok FOR ME but I want a better/greater driving experience.....will be for sale soon.

My car is a mountain road carver/nice day driver/DD sometimes. I'm also want to try some track days...up coming road Atlanta, yeah.
Have you though about Ground Control's coilovers. I put them on for one of my customer's that owns a 99 Camaro SS. He bought the coilovers and I installed them, I drove the car and had very nice ride to it. Your options are single or double adjustable.
