Default Coil Over Owners Chime In

Im just curious how you guys are liking your set ups? I really like the idea of the adjustable ride height, but the way i've been informed is that coil overs are killer on your cars ride quality, and offcourse on the entire car over time. I know that you can get different stiffness and all of that, but i figured id come and ask the ones that own various set ups.

For what its worth, my buddy has coil overs from H&R on his Saab and it rides real nice!

Well my Dad and I lowered our cars at the smae time both using Eibach springs. I used KYB(mistake) in the front and he used the Edelbrock coil overs. He says the ride height adjustability is nice but he doesnt like the ride.Hope this gives a little help at least.
