Default Want your imput on buying coilovers

I'm looking to buy a nice set of coilovers this spring & with all the different brands out there I'm not sure what to get. I'm looking to spend a max of 1,700. I want coilovers that can drop my car about 2 inches, has a decent ride & good performance. I'm not sure if its true ,but I heard that Mopar stage 3's have the best ride quality. I welcome any imput. Thanks!

I prefer BC Racing coilovers over rest. Best bang for your buck. $999 for BC BRs and $1149 for inverted (great for autocrossing). You can get any custom spring rate that you want at no additional cost. The come with front camber plates and optional rear camber plates ($160 extra).

The H&R coilover kit is a great choice. Just $1131.00
Adjusts from 1.25" to 2.5" drop in front and 1.0-2.0" rear.

The Mopar stage 2/3 have always been a safe bet. You may pay slightly more but you're getting excellent quality and service that comes with those coilovers. Have them installed by someone who knows what they're doing, don't drop them beyond their recommended setting and your good as gold. Keep in mind that I'm not a vendor trying to move one of my items either...

I'm partial to my BC's! Great ride quality and you really can't beat them for the money! Front camber plates FTW!

Tein is not the best. I would most likely choose Tein over BC. This is based on my experience using Teins on other cars though. Take it for what its worth.
