yes, after almost a year of saying i'm on the verge of buying coilovers, i finally did. i got some bilstein pss9's this morning. they should be here this week. they're ride height and 9 way dampening adjustable. pretty stoked as i've been waiting to do this for such a long time. i will post some pictures and thoughts once i get them on.

Haha so the coilovers out weighed the new laptop?

I never really could justify coilovers...
Love my H&R/Bilstein spring/shock combo
I never really could justify coilovers...
Ditto, but I guess I payed almost as much for Koni SAs. Ironically, I chose mine over a new laptop, too. :)
Anywho, sweet. Let us know how they compare when you get them installed.

me too. i got them for a steal of a deal, so they're justified in my mind.

deals are always good. They can justify just about anything!

just got back from test drive, they are so sweet. i had them on pretty moderate settings, 4 front and 3 rear, with 1 being the stiffest and 9 being the softest. definitely much better handling and a much more comfortable ride. i'm stoked.

Sounds like it's time for a cruise :)

Do you have black wheels with no tint on the windows?

i have black wheels and tinted windows. not very low, the lower you go the worse your handling gets. it doesn't look 4X4 though.
