Hello All,

It seems that I will soon have wheels sorted for my E9 and am now very focussed on suspension. I have been asking questions in another thread on wheel offsets that lead into suspension and figured to rather gain the attention in a new thread of people running coilovers.

I have so far found that Ireland Engineering will sell the spring perch for the front to be adapted to an OE strut, Ground Control have a setup that I cannot find a vendor for and KW have a V3 setup, which looks nice.

I am considering either the KW V3 or the Ground Control. Do any of your have feedback on either??

Importantly, I would like to know if either the KW or the Ground Control's spring perch on the front comes down lower than the standard seat height. I ask this because I have had coilovers before where the front comes down much further than OE and then influences the wheel selection because there is now a spring encroaching on space.

As usual, thank-you in advance for the input!
 
Replied to other thread re: coil overs.

Be sure to replace all your bushings to poly while your at it.

Have fun!
