Are the ground control coilovers any good? Do you think they will corode a lot in the winter causing them to be real hard to adjust?

 

If you are going to go with coil-over sleeves instead of a true coil-over, Ground Control is a good company to go with. They use Eibach springs for their set-up, and if I remember correctly, you used to be able to order them with custom spring rates. As far as rusting, everything up north seems to rust in the winter!

 

Do you think the sleeves would get too rusty causing them to not adjust? Since the springs they use are eibachs the ride quality should be awesome right?

 

The ride quality depends on how low you adjust them, and as far as the rusting thing goes, if you hit the suspension up with the pressure washer at a car wash once a week or so you should be awright. It's all the sand and salt they use up north on the roads that creates the corrosion problems. Keep that stuff off and you should be cool.

 

does anyone plan on buying these coilovers?

 

i would only go ground control if i could run koni shocks with them...anything else wont last

 

ground control coilovers and konis would cost around $1,200, which means i should just buy a true coilover setup like the kw setup.

 

I called up ground control and they stated their coilover setup will only work on the ss models which really sucks cuase i wanted to order a set for my base model.

 

Damn, that sucks. When are these companies going to realize not everyone has an SS?

 

i dont understand why it wouldnt work for a base...? my friend just installed stock ss/sc struts & assemably in his base coupe. i beleive the company knows nothing haha.

 

do you these coilover sleevs are worth buying? would i need to cut off my spring perch to install these?
