Coilovers?
Hey guys,
I'm new here and I been looking about lowering my car and I don't really want to put in springs (heard they don't have that good of long-term effect). The next best thing I heard is coil overs. I have a few questions.
1) What kind of coil overs are there and what is a good one to get?
2) Estimated cost?
3) Drop? I just want to get rid of the gap and have the lowered stance look.
4) Anyone here instal them with pictures of before and after?
Anyone try these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Megan-Racing-Euro-Street-Coilovers-Shocks-Springs-Mercedes-Benz-C-Class-W204-/251094915826?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a766c5af2&vxp=mtr
Thank you for your time,

Brand name and quality wise you're looking for something like H&R or KW units. You can also check the bilstein/eibach spring/shock combo. There are also brands such as Stance Coilovers and such. Megan Racing back when they first started had major quality issues, not sure how their stuff is now, I know some people with other brand cars have run them but it's still hit or miss. Cost would depend on where you source the parts from.
You should check out the suspension thread we have in this forum, that can help answer some of your questions.
