Anybody have coilovers?
I'm just wondering if anybody have coilovers on their r171? I'm talking about coilovers not springs btw. I've heard about coilover kits from KW suspension and also bilstein. It'll be nice if any member has this mod and tell me how they are.

KW makes coilovers for the R171. Actually, there is an authourized KW dealer in Surrey, BC.... HPA Motorsports.

Ynot, are you installing your wheels first or your springs or both at the same time?
I'm gonna get my wheels first, then I might(prob will) get the Brabus springs. I'm just worried about the rubbing. I'll see how the wheels look with the stock springs first.
