Need general info on coilovers
I have a 2011 infinit G37 sedan and I want to get coilovers for it. This will be my first time buying coilovers so I have a lot of questions. The main question in being what is a dependable coilover if your on a budget. I've been looking into CX racing, and tein right now. So if I could hear your thoughts on those and any other coilovers you would recommend that would be great.

Cx racing seems cheap to me. I always see them floating around eBay. Tein is better, I'm rocking there S-tech springs right now. Either way, This is your suspension, it's a very vital part of your car. Please don't cheap out and risk the safety of passengers in the car as well as your own. I've been looking for coilovers as well, mainly ones that go super low because I'm looking for fitment, and the stance coilovers seem to be the best for my budget. There around $1k and I've looked at plenty of reviews and they seem like there quality parts. Just my 0.02.

For the price the Tein Street basis are about the best deal, they don't use pillowball front hat mounts that can be a source of noise related issues. The Teins use the factory hats, they don't have adjustable dampers but are set up pretty well for daily driving out of the box. These aren't coilovers that you should slam, more of a moderate drop range, up to about 2". These are a better option than lowering springs on OEM shocks. The Konis on lowering springs is a great option, and should be around $1k give or take depending on which lowering springs you use. Keep in mind you should also inclucde the cost of at least a rear camber kit in the deal too.

My Megan LPs have held up well for over 30k miles and I'm at zero gap, could go much lower if I decided I wanted to scrape on everything.
