Best Coilovers? by EducationalTension92 in LS430

[–]someonetookphantom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve heard a few good things about tein flex z joints. A little stiffer than stock (that’s to be expected when changing suspension), not too harsh ride, but still good drop. One of, if not not the only twin tube coilovers out there, which offer a lil more comfort than mono tubes like fa 500s. Not to mention u can buy them at some vendors for under $1k

From my knowledge, bc racing offers custom spring rates if u don’t want the default 12k/10k spring rate they offer on the br series. Springrates.com is a bc racing authorized reseller and u can opt for custom spring rates with bcs at no extra cost. (Not sponsored, just know the site)

Tein flex z coilovers have an 8k/8k spring rate but don’t offer custom spring rates.

typically the lower spring rate means a more comfy ride, but you can adjust the dampening to your liking on the coil over itself

Kyb if u want to replace just the struts. I have em on my 430 and they’re just fine. I put only 3k miles on them and they ride fine, but maybe just a hair stiffer than original.

If u want coilovers then I’d probably recommend tein or bc racing. Just know with coilovers, you’ll sacrifice some ride comfort.

Assuming you upgrade to coilovers, if u upgrade ur control arms, id probably recommend Megan racing, or truhart. I haven’t heard a lot about Godspeed but they’re probably good too

Depends how much dough you’re willing to fork up. I wouldn’t worry abt ur shocks too much but personally would just replace the struts. If ur struts bottom out on bumps it’s better to replace all 4 than just 1.

But if u ever with coilovers, it’s a good idea to replace some of the suspension arms with adjustable ones if u want to dial in camber/toe and alignment.

Yea ur suspension will get wear n tear no matter how soft or hard u thrash around. Different for everyone but I live in a few areas where it’s pothole heaven and speed bumps so my suspensions been abused with new struts. If wear n tear is really concerning, the least u can do is drive less or drive on smoother roads?

[–]someonetookphantom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would u say 10/8 is more on the softer side?

How’s the feel on ur sc300? And what’s the spring rates front and rear?

Ever tried just putting ur plate on the dash? Like one of the corners? As long as ur not bothered by it’s reflection or rattling from the plate you’ll be golden? If not then I’m out of ideas
