Opinions please ...

I'm currently running cheap OEM replacement struts with B&G S2 springs on my Gen4 ('99).

The struts are just about done and I have a couple of options for replacement.

I've got a set of Ground Control adjustable coil overs that have been sitting for quite some time.

I've got a set of BNIB Tokico Illuminas that have been sitting for just as long.

Here's my inquiry to you guys ...

For a relatively pampered daily driver that now again gets some toying with, what would you guys tell me would be the advantage of either/both of my prospective suspension setups.

1. Tokico Illuminas paired with B&G S2 springs.

2. Tokico Illuminas paired with Ground Control adjustable coil overs.

Your thoughts?

 

I've seen some pretty bad bouncing with ground controls; not a fan

Stick with the springs

 

illuminas may just may do ok or mediorce with the GC's but... idk...

is it worth it... yes if u do it yourself and can rip out the GC's if u dont like it.

 

I would sell the GC and get something else. The illumina as you know, are a great strut.

 

Here's my setup and it's great. Tein H-Tech springs (1.5" drop) and KYB front struts, Megan rear struts (I blew the megans up front with a 2" drop originally).

 

in the long run it makes you wonder, why did you get the cheap oem replacments in the first place???

 

how old is the suspension setup?

if recent just drive it...
