KW vs Stance

Okay mom has told me for christmas she would get me coilovers and wheels. I have decided on Varrstoens 2.2.2 i think thats what they are. But with coilovers i am still stuck one which ones. I want to be low and nice ride comfort and some handling improvements if possible. So which is better Stance or KW? If stance is better what series of the stance coilovers like GR plus, GR pro or what?

KW is a much better company and higher quality than stance. They build most of all the world cup suspension setups...


KW history /// KW today employs more than 200 employees at several subsidiaries

What color is the car and there is only one guy with Varrstoens rims. Mom must be a millionare because those rims require custom drilled to fit these cars and are pricey like grand or more

oh your talking about nathan. I picked the wheels out. I didnt know they required custom drilling. They are just a thousand and something i believe. My car is sport red tintcoat or whatever. I dont want it to feel like im riding on a cloud. I just dont want it to ride like a covered wagon.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

Go with the Stance coilovers. they go the lowest than any other coilover for out cars, and even when dumped they ride fairly well. honeslty they are only a wee bit bouncier than the stock tc suspension, but nothing that will rattle your spin.

Lmao!!!! Me to I just thought the undershirts would make it to unbelievable so I left them out. It's the classic "I don't know what to get you here have this."

My wife on the other hand got me a second xbox controller, a bottle of whiskey, 2 ticket to see machine head, and a Dean ML guitar. Best wife ever!!
