Hmm...I dunno, sorry. Maybe all that's left is to try coilovers from a different company?

*BUMP FOR HOPE THAT MORE XI OWNERS SEE THIS LOL*

because I like the charcoal look a lot. my next set of rims is charcoal too.

Pics coming soon but for know would love some feedback on suspension. Considering 3 options for better handling and lowering the car (just got CSL reps in 18 with 235/40 proxe 4s and car is looking a bit like a 4x4)

1) H&R springs only -$250ish
2) Koni cup lit and H&R springs- $800
3)H&R coilovers- about $1150

Leanign towards option #2 or #3- anyone have experience with either set up?. I want more control, less body roll and lowered look but not a harsh ride- sounds like Konis to me but do most think it would be worth $350-400 more for coilovers?

for question 1 springs only would kill your shocks

2 & 3 are good from what ive read.

i was thinking about getting dinan stage 1 suspension....

from my research H&R sport springs do no blow the shocks as quickly as everyone thinks. Its the H&R race springs that are the reason for so many blowouts. This is also why I feel there is so much confusion revolving around springs and stock shocks. Hope this helps! The ride quality is slightly harsh though i must admit

Can't pass up the chance to post more photos

Here's some shots from an older photoshoot I did when I only had my coilovers installed, no wheels, no clears, no painted grill and window trim. I find these to be some of my cleanest photos ever, so I hope you enjoy them
