the TT is an amazing sight as it is...no need to worry about looks (aftermarket wheels) right away. I want it to handle its *** off first. Agreed?

Default sure... but i'd go with KW's instead...

i did my coilovers before i did my wheels...

100% improvement! and looks good too...

do the KWs ride harder or softer than the PSS 9s? Are they "comfort" adjustable like the Bilsteins?

Default KW makes 3 different versions, including fully adjustable ones.

Default And these are the closed up picture of the KW coilovers.

decided to go for KW after 2days of ride on my new set of ABT 18" wheels. I was happy that I had made the right choice. Now the ride (after 1 month of installation now) is smooth, comfortable and doing corners and bents are so much sharper now.

and presenting the end result.....

Default super! though with that bright fmic poking out ...

it would be awesome to get some rims with a polished lip (center color could still be gunmetal to keep the sinister look).
