Springs VS Adjustable Coil Over Kit Question
Anyone have experience with spring suspension and an actual coil over kit with adjustable ride height? There seems to be a big price difference.. ($200 to around $1000). Are you only paying that much extra for the ride adjustment option? Or is there more???

Big difference.
With a adjustable coilover kit you're also getting shocks which is the most expensive part of the whole kit.
You get the ability to fine tune your ride height, and you get a spring/shock combination that's matched to each other.

Just get Spring/Shocks combo and forget about it... CO is nice but does require maintenance...
Unless you buy PSS9 or Stasis motor sports kit... Only thing you can adjust is ride height after it gets installed.... (Not much better than H&R/Eibach w/ KONI/Bilstein shocks)
Spend money on good sway bar setup (h-sport) and tires (don't go buy cheap UHP tires on 19" wheels)......
