Great video man, one of the best vids when comparing coilovers vs lowering springs.
Short and simple vid. Nicely done.
Thank you bro you answered the questions I had floating around in my head perfectly
Great video! Subscribed! I look forward to watch more!
One of those Fortune Auto automatically adjustable coil. That way I can set the ride height according to whatever I'm doing.
Nice infos hope ull gain 100k and beyond asap. Cheersss
I bought a set of RCE yellows with intentions of eventually upgrading to coilovers, and while I still plan on upgrading soon, I absolutely love these springs. They are a noticeable bit stiffer, while also lowering the ride height a tad. You can feel that these aren't going to get bouncy after a year or so. While they are a little more expensive than other options and don't provide as much drop, they are absolutely the choice to make for springs.
They have definitely been the go to for a lot of our customers!
Did you ever buy the Coilovers? And how are the RCE yellows holding up?
I’m not an expert but I believe ride gets bouncy when struts go bad not springs. Ride gets harsh when springs go bad
@@jayandrusiak using the strut outside of it's expected range (stock spring) wears them quicker
Great information that convinced me to look at going with KW H.A.S. springs for my S5 as I'm looking to do occasional autox, canyon runs, and/or track days.
I had them on my s4, I thought they were a little bouncy
Thanks for the feedback. After doing some more research I actually changed my mind, and decided to go with the Bilstein PSS10s on my S5. I’m saving up to get them sometime in the spring of 2024.
I’ve lowered all my cars most luck using the Tein Flex A using the Electronic Dampening! Amazing setup! I have tried just lowering springs. That broke my shocks. I then used new shocks and lowering springs - shocks were adjustable- but for the quality and price point Tein has everyone beat.
I love Tein, I want to get the electronic dampening when I do.
Crap, I’ve been trying to decide between low springs and the Tein electric dampeners (for a 92’ 3000gt that had original electronic suspension.) I’m now forking up an extra $600 for the Tein due to your advice. Thanks 😂
@@jayandrusiak there is a GPS option also, I used for Autocross. It was a great feature also
Just got a set of ohlins from you guys.
It is another level coilovers.
Worth every penny
Ohlins have always been known for their quality and performance and they continue to deliver! Running a set on my own car and I was impressed myself.
SubiSpeed And you had the best price with 10% off. I am so happy :)
Great Video
I went with the rce yellow springs on my 17 wrx and I love the way the car sits and handles. I daily my car so it was the perfect option for me
Glad to hear that you're enjoying your RCE Yellows! It definitely shows how much thought and development they put into their kit.
you got an ig? i'd like to see a pic of how it sits bro
Mauricio Solis I just posted a before and after pic instagram.com/p/Bu7SylBF6Zt/?igshid=kklkw910zzmv
Wise Guyz dude how has your car been holding up tho ? Wanna get these on my 18 wrx but heard you need different struts
Have a 2015 WRX with 32K miles. I installed the RCE Yellow springs 4 years ago haven’t had any issues with the struts yet. They been holding well after 4 years.
Are the tein endurapro plus struts paired with a tein lower spring a good setup for my sti sedan?
I don't track or autocross my Mazda 2 but I want mines lowered... should I need coilovers still or I'm good with just lowering springs? :)
Do I need to remove rear springs when installing rear coilovers ?
H&R sports lowering springs with kyb 4 AGX shocks, that's my setup.
I have a 2016 sentra SV DEEP PEARL BLUE...putting on 17 inch MST MT 13 RIMS..BLACK INSIDE..SILVER OUTSIDE...GOLD LIP...BEAUTIFUL RIM but i just want some lowering or the car wont look how i want it to look....so just springs will do...my racing days and showing off days are over but i still like my rides to look nice..been messing with cars since 1987!!! M3...M5...300 ZX TWIN TURBO...AND A BENZ 300E COUPE....BEEN THERE DONE THAT!!
Hello friend, I loved the video. I have a question. I have a 2020 c43 amg. It has a factory system to adjust it and I don't want to delete it. I just want to lower it a little. What do you recommend? Thank you.
hey guys! greetings from argentina. i ve got a mk4 jetta on eibach pro kit lowering springs, i think that the owner had the original struts modified when he install those springs but, the problem i ve been having is that when i load up de jetta for a road trip and fill up the trunk and throw a couple of my buddies in the back i get some rubb between the wheel arch and the wheel...so my question for you guys is: could it bee that the struts have been messed with in a way thar compromises de loading capability or is it only the fact of lowering the car wich makes the rubb to happen?? what should i do?? i ve been asking around but none of y local shops gave me a straight answer. thanks! and great video!
Amazing info 👍🏼
For a truck would springs or coil overs be better?
RCE spring should work with 245/40/18.5 35mm offset no rub issue?
Great vid...broke it down to me
I just pressed the like button and boom to 2K!
Great Video. To the Point Thank you..!
Cheers All kim in Oz. 😎
Can someone answer : People in Taiwan always said not to change the low spring only. Cause it’s will damage the stock struts. I really doubt that. I just want to low my car and not spending too much money.
Are coilovers universal? Can they be put on any car once you get them?
Which was better comfort for my car
camry se24, coilovers or springs ?
What are disadvantages of cutting springs n of using coils
Thank you
I got the Swift from you guys. Wanna install them so badly but too busy :(
Weather is warming up, get to it!!!
Hello, I have a 2020 Honda Odyssey Touring, I need help deciding if I should get Coilovers or Lowering Springs? I don't want to mess up my suspension, just enought to keep the gap less, plus the stance #VanKultureCanada , please help me decide, thanks
Go to mid-range coilover for a daily driver?
Do I need camber kit with spings that lower oem ones of 40mm for an Audi a3 2007 please? Thanks
I support to use lowering spring for my Camry 2015 xle ( front 1" and rear 1.5" EIBACH) . And I gonna buy 20" BBS wheels ( tire 245/35zR20). So, is there any issue when I low my car down ?
Might have an issue when hitting speed bumps or potholes.. shouldn’t be too bad though
Can I put those lowering rce yellow springs on my 2003 Subaru liberty rx
What coilovers can be used on the Toyota RAV4 xa30

you got an ig bro? i'd love to see how it sits
i'm thinking of getting the rce yellows
Mauricio Solis @rydom
Im on BC Racing and after riding in my bros WRX on RCEs...BCs ride softer and better than RCEs
Cusco!!
Gave me the exact information I needed lol
What are some good springs for a infinit g35?
rce yellows go on a mazda6 grand touring ?
Press the lowering springs a bit more I installed once and it’s a “soft ride”
I want my corolla to have a one finger gap in front and 2 finger gap in rear can i use lowering spring? How I can achieve those heights easily?
You have to fuck the muffler
Springs are the way for me in Australia coilovers are illegal unless professional installed which cost around $700 💀
17 exl accord needs me some low on god.
How fast will the RCE Yellows shorten the life of the stock struts on an STi?
RCE has taken the time to properly develop their springs to perfectly match up with the OEM struts so you don't have to worry about that.
Read nasioc, they destroy your struts, depends on the car but can take as little as 10k miles
Have a 2015 WRX with 32K miles. Installed the RCE Yellow 4 years ago when the car had about 3K miles and the struts are still in good condition. No issues yet.
Awesome video! For those VW Jetta MK4 enthusiasts out there (that have experience with various coilovers), what is the best suspension system for a daily drive VW JETTA GLI 2004 2.8L VR6 24v (BDF) six speed. H&R, Bilstein, Eibach, KW, Koni or KSport, or perhaps a mix and match, or something else? I want quality materials, able to go low (at least 2") and not too stiff. Any opinions out there? Please reply to my message.
Lmk if u find out I’m in the same boat haha
Go for tein
@@motivation-24X7 Thank you for the advise. I appreciate it. This community of VW Jetta's MK4 had tried them all, so is good to know from the community.
I yet to see a lowering springs on subaru that is even, most are the back is lower than the front...why is that?
I too would like to know
What do you recommend to get about a 0.5 to 1" drop without compromising ride quality too much?
Springs
RCE Yellow would be perfect for you
Anyone ever purchased the tein street basis? And would they be a great choice for a wrx thats daily driven
I used to have Tein SS 16 way adjustable coilovers back in 2003 until I wrecked my car in late 2004. They're similar for what they're intended for, I loved the ability to change my heith and the adjustable bound/rebound to cruise like a cadi or stiff as a board. I think I will go with Tein again when I replace my stock shocks on my sti , I want to be able to jump her LOL
Waiting on that jdm facelift grill before i change my whole front end :/
I'm waiting too 🙁
So if I just want to go about an inch low you recommend springs ?
Most definitely
did you get any ?
So no issue just using the springs with factor shocks/struts?
Please answer
I get a Nissan Sentra b17 what I should have to put coilovers or springs ?
Steve Perez spend that money on a tutor. After that, get some coilovers.
i just ordered the fa 500 gen 7
Excited to actually get our hands on a set.
When are these supposed to ship out? I just ordered a set for my wrx. Thanks
What's the intro music?
can you guys do a vid on wheels sizez with tires and lowering spring and coilovers?
We have a wheel fitment video that basically covers it. We usually recommend an 18x9.5 +38 with a 255/35/18 tire.
@@SubiSpeed I want to know if you can fit a 19x10 wheel with coilovers. I've been looking but I haven't seen anything. I assume you have to roll the fenders but I just want to see if a 10" wide wheel would fit with coilovers, I think it would make the STI look AMAZING.
Need me some coil overs
Get you some coilovers!
What kind of coilovers can I put on my 2017 Nissan Rouge ? I want to go low but not way to low, once’s you go low with springs you’ll always stay low with springs & that’s once reason why I don’t want springs 🤦🏽♂️
Anthony Barriento look it up lmao
lol
I hace owned 3 bc coilovers and they all had knocking and banging noises, ride was crap too.
interesting.
stock spring is more comfortable than spring sport. my question, is adjustable can get the comfort after lowered the car?
no way
@@AcheLone even high low soft hard?
@@farhanauni6471 yeah.....although some said ohlins, aragosta which cost a bomb will give a kind of comfort.....otherwise...a twin tube adjustable will give a close feel to lowered spring + sport absorber combo....even that there is some difference...affordable adjustable monotube....forget about comfort....
im on a budget and i need lowering springs on my e70 x5
How do air lift suspensions compare to coilovers and lowering springs? ie. performance, lowering, and ride quality
Way worse handling and ride quality than even stock suspension but convenient to easily slam or raise vehicle at any time
What is the best drop spring for original shock??
We highly recommend you check out the FactionFab lowering springs: www.subispeed.com/search?q=factionfab%20lowerin&hPP=12&idx=products&p=0
What about Swift lowering springs?
What I don't understand is why does everybody call it coilovers? Isn't the stock suspension that comes from the factory the same thing just less good? What's the difference betwwen coilovers and a stock suspension?
Xoilovers are adjustable but stock isn't ig
@@MB88977 oh. In my language that would be called threaded suspension since all suspensions I know except for air ride and leaf springs have coilsprings over the shock absorbers so I don't really understand the reason to call them that way.
@@electricpaisy6045 I checked online "coilover" is short for coil spring over shock absorber lol
@@MB88977 exactly. So that just what every basic ass stock suspension on a family van is. No?
@@electricpaisy6045 yup lmao
I brought a brand new set of bc golds br and they suck balls I spent 1800 to lower my car bugger all more then factory waste of money.
Same here, BC coilovers uncomfortable and they have a knock noise. Just rubbish.
what about for wheel clearance?
Can you elaborate?
What if I want a wider wheel than stock?
is a 2 inch lowering spring still daily drivable?
Depends on the area you live in and if you're comfortable driving around a lowered car as well as dealing with a stiffer suspension.
In the Springfield surrounding area 2 inch is perfect! But, the truth still remains is that of the location.
The Mechanic's Quest wait why does it matter about where I live??
Compton Born & Raised Think about it, if you live in a very hilly area or a city with parking garages/speed bumps everywhere that you will need to clear, going lower won’t be as easy as being in a small town with few hills and no bumps. Make sense?
Davis Hirsch yeah, live in Compton.. speed bumps, potholes and all parking garages lol but the springs im looking at is 1.5inch is that still bad... /:
What the fuck does damping mean?
Sounds like coilovers the way to go
Lowering!? I need a lift #frostheavesNpotholes 😂
Matt Holmes for real brother
@Landon Rabito fuck off
For Everyday driving. Keep it stock.
Stock is the best if you aren’t track nor street race.
nel c dosent look the best though lls
Damien Brown doesn’t matter to me. Function > form
Budget this turns into budget that. And before you know it you have a cheap rice rocket sitting next to you. Take your time and save your money to put some nice stuff into your cars people.
Lol that intro
Stock is the best.
Yo was yo pinky finger broken?
Every reviewer acts like everyone’s taking they’re car to the track & never want to mention which is better for COMFORTABILITY daily driving these shitty roads 🤡
There IS no comparison. Grandmas know coilovers are better. All about the cash!
Good video I’m not watching fitment industries 12 minute video to describe a simple comparison lmao talk about taking advantage
You don't know the difference in terms of lap time on track between the two do you?
