I have ractive coilovers on stock shocks and the ride is soooooo shit. I cant drive anywhere. When I get new shocks should I replace the springs too or do u guys think the shocks will be enough??

i would say replace it w/ lowering springs & aftermarket shocks. A true coil-over suspension is $900 & up. You get what you pay for with suspension parts. cheapier is NOT better.


I dont beleive Ractive or whatever is known for suspension parts.
APC i would stay away from

Yeah not the best coilovers you can buy.

I would suggest getting Ground Control, Skunk2, Progress Group coilovers and get a nice set of shocks like Koni Yellows or KYBs.

If you want a good ride, dont get coilovers, just get some springs and the new shocks.
