[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 18622"] if your going to get coilovers, might as well go for the top daddy, and thats ones from ATS which is completely adjustable, height to dampners. least with cup pack its a forget and go track and day all rounder were corner weights already been worked out and dampner rates to give a good track feel yet not break your back on motor way. coilovers give you that superiour ride height adjustment for track/rally days yet you'll have to get them set/corner checked every time you change your height, dont think that ten turns on left front will equal ten turns on front right. unless you've got the equipement or friends to do it your self becomes expensive. and having coilover as one height is no point, could just go for lowering springs which like stock has bene set up to take the weight but slightly better made quality then oem and isnt running so low you can go over bumps. just depends on what you'll be using it for. i've gone for lowering springs so get a bit lower on the track but nothing hard core, yet have adjustable dampners *still awaiting to fit* with settings to allow super comfy ride on motor ways or harden them as much as the track in question requires or a nice blast on B-roads. from sounds of it, you should go for cup package, wear those tyres down and keep the slim 195 for winter and aftermarket 205 rims for summer day driving :D or other way around but get some 205s on the cup if not going to be using it for winter [/QUOTE]
