Wink Just picked up a set of ZEAL Function Xs coilovers

I just gave the KW V3's a try. The V3's are nice and comfortable for the street. However, a bit too soft for my tastes. I also want to lower my car a lot more so I went ahead and picked the Zeals up. I will update with my impressions of these as soon as I get a chance to install them. Big ups to Kent at Endless USA for all of the help.

waiting for your review from V3 to these because I have the V3 and these would be my next step in coilovers.

The springs are off the shelf. Jeff told me what spring rates they were, but I forgot since I was focusing on my midterm today. I might run a shorter spring in the back if it doesn't lower enough.

Yeah, Function XS. They mentioned something about the colors changing as well.

The other suspension setups were out of my price range at the moment. I will upgrade to the higher end ones one day if I like these. It's the 12/10 spring rates.
