Megan Racing EZ Street Coilovers
Easily one of our favorite bang for your buck coilover choices, these EZ Streets are an excellent entry level choice. You can opt with the base coilover, which will require you to transfer over part of your factory suspension.
This may not always be desirable however, especially for those who are lower than their suspension travel realistically allows.
This results in suspension damage, poor handling and dangerous, unpredictable driving experiences. Instead, stick with a coilover kit that allows you to adjust height from the bottom perch.
This ensures that full suspension travel remains intact, and that you don’t bottom out your poor shock absorbers.

With the name Eibach and their cold rolled technology, you can be sure of a spring that will withstand the test of time. Spring resilience and damper durability is something that Eibach prides itself on, and it shows in their Pro Street line of products.
Tein Super Street Coilovers
One of the most trusted names in performance,
TEIN is one of the gold standards in suspension. From their BASIC lineup of coilovers all the way up to their Drift Master or
Flex models, TEIN is undoubtedly one of the best in the business.
