Coilover help! Whos selling some?

READ FIRST.
(I admit i dont know a whole lot about this topic, oh well &)

i want to buy some coils but first i want to know a little bit more about them.
i was planning on buying either bc, stance, or f&f. if the price is right.

Whats the ride comfort for all three of these, the lowest drop i can get(inches wise)
whats damper? do i need it?
what about when it says 32 way adjustable, whats that mean.


if you guys can post pics with these 3 coils
i want a more slammed/aggressive look

I WANT TO BUY COILOVERS ASAP NEW OR USED, preferably used, since there cheaper.

its my daily driver.
THANKS

It would be really nice to have a decisive coilover pros/cons breakdown thread.

^^^Have you seen this one? https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-...ew-thread.html


OP I would recommend saving up to buy new coils. You never know what condition used sets are in and if they blow on you after a couple of months you're screwed. Adjustable dampening means you can control how stiff or soft the struts will be, but remember that the springs also determine the stiffness of the ride. A set of coils set on full soft dampening will still be stiff if the spring rates are high.

Blue dream you're my hero. Somehow I missed that thread completely, it's very well put together for the most part too. How could I have missed this?

Thanks again that's exactly what I was looking for.

I just failed completely. I was diggin in the suspension section too but most of my hunting was via. search.

There's so many subsections here it's tough to get used to. Apologies for nooobness
Even with those links there's still so much more to research before I can decide. So many facets and differences between CO's depending on adjustment style, range of adjustment, spring rates, etc, etc. Then factor in reliability, which I haven't found reviews on either yet, and man it's daunting....
