Default Which coilovers go the lowest?

been looking at H&R, TEIN, KW...

i need it to be tucking front and rear tires, and more room to go if i want.

performance is also greatly needed, as i will be tracking the car (duh i'll be raising the coils up for this)

heard that Stance Sus is the way to go?

So I need really good performing coilovers for the track, as well as the most drop so tucking tire is a must

Thanks

You want a coilover that is case length adjustable...

Like the TEIN FLEX...

You can also go as far as to get different springs... so you can have different free-length's and or shorter spring stroke...

HKS Hipermax RS for example is NOT case length adjustable...
TEIN Flex IS case length adjustable
JIC FLTA-2 IS case length adjustable

Most Coilovers that retain the factory rear spring perch will not go as low as the True Coilover type.

My KW V3 do not go anywhere as low as the Stace GR coilovers.

thanks for the inputs.

but does the TEIN Flex go low enough for me to tuck and have some room left over?

I know Stance can tuck, but how does that perform on the track??
