Coilover advantages

[DanGB]

Hi all,

Considering Coilovers for a lower height and better handling.

What makes the handling much better on coilover as opposed to standard suspension? whats the difference really?

Cheers.

simple anser, lower center of gravity = better cornering speeds.

long anser, havnt got time today but will try tomorow.

any decent aftermarket suspension will help handling
stiffer shock/spring combo, reduces body roll
main benefit of coilovers is adjustable ride height and ride dampening where available
but its not just about how low you go, its pretty irrelevant actually
