EBIIF30 · 09-14-2014, 08:15 PM

Okay so i took off my vossen cv3 and im curious what u guys think my next setup should be!

I just ordered M performance front lip and H&R sport springs as well. So let me know what wheels to throw on as well. Looking for something in the $1800 price range.

They're more expensive than $1.8k, but I'd get the AC Schnitzer Type VIII forged wheels.

They're awesome, and you save weight

Increase your budget or keep the stock wheels. Nothing in that price range is worth buying...assuming you mean $1,800 a set, not $1,800 a piece.

If $1,800 a piece, I say BBS LM-Rs or any HRE your heart desires.

I can guarantee you he upgraded only the springs while leaving the stock dampers, like many do who like to cut corners to save money. Of course the outcome of this will be "bad" as he so eloquently stated, resulting in an awful, under-dampened ride. Comparing such a setup to KW coilovers is not a valid comparison.

There's nothing wrong with H&R springs. They are the best in the business.

Increase your wheels budget to 2500, it will be worth it. Find some Vossen or Velgen rims.
