Recommended Vendors for Coilovers???

Just finally narrowing down which Coilovers I'm looking into, but wondering if there were any specific vendors that would be good to look to for stance or Fortune autos? Any help or info is appreciated !!!

It's between Stance or Fortune autos, not sure which one will inch it's way forward but it's a tough decision.

I wound up going Fortune but only because Stance hadn't come out with the X coilovers yet.

So between the two you think stance would of been your choice over the FA's? I'm just trying to get down to the details at this point between the two. Bc coils turned me off to due to that clunking issue members were having.

Adam always recommends Stance to his customers with a $1k budget. They are true type coilovers which is a plus over the FAs, and I believe you can opt for a Swift spring upgrade on them as well.

That's what I was thinking, going with stance and the swifts but would this combo be better then the FA's and swifts. I just want to buy this once and get the best for my money/G

Why is a "true" type coilover a plus?

For those going true-type, there's apparently a rubber bushing on the rear hub that fails fairly quickly. A reinforced part should be looked at. SPL makes a spherical-end part for this.
