D2 coilovers

Anyone running these coilovers I'm wondering if it's worth my money and how they ride. Buddy of mine is selling his $750 with 400 miles on them

Their supposed to be one of the better ones for handling, not sure how the ride is though, I'd guess not too great like most coilovers.

Well I like a stiffer ride so that wouldn't be a problem I probly should have worded it different, the ride being nice would be good handling with not too much rebound bounce because I've heard people with coilovers have a bounce after hitting a bump that keeps bouncing when you hit smooth pavement

I honestly can't comment, I like my suspension, no bounce at all. I would only consider either the YYZ and Koni's or KW V2. I went with the YYZ since it still should ride better and love it.

This is only because these two are supposed to be the two best for handling, also have heard the D2's are good though.

i have kw v1 and theres no bouncyness, people generally buy the bc that have compression and rebound adjustment and have no idea how to set them up so they end up with a bouncy ride.

X2... bouncyness is caused by the spring loads and compression. my stances were pre-loaded from the factory and I have no problems with that. Of course my ride is stiff, but i kinda like it after a while (no homo)
