Thats not ALL the coilovers available for these....
They come in 3 levels for the Balt's
S1- has:
Scaled suspension system for easier installation.
Full length adjustment system on lower mount
Separate ride height and spring pre-load adjustments
Aluminum alloy construction: lower mount, top mount, spring seat and locks
Forged aluminum top mount
R1- Scaled suspension system for easier installation.
Full length adjustment system on lower mount
Separate ride high and pre-load adjustments
Aluminum alloy construction: lower mount, top mount, spring seat and locks
Multi-positional manual damping force adjustment
Forged aluminum top mount
R3-Scaled suspension system for easier installation.
Full length adjustment system on lower mount
Separate ride height and pre-load adjustments
Aluminum alloy construction: lower mount, top mount, spring seat and locks
Multi-positional manual damping force adjustment
Front top mount includes an adjustable camber plate**
Front suspension is mounted on a pillow ball
Forged aluminum top mount
Thier "scaled" sleeves look like this, so you do not need a tape measure to adjust.....
They also can do custom spring rates to meet your needs.
If there is some decent interest shown here, I can look into doing a group buy.
forgot.....mmmmmm, pillowball mounts.

AHH....I did not know what the problem is.....I don think these would then, but I will try to verify that from someone who has them installed on that particular application.

Depends on what you want and how much you want to spend, I am looking forward to getting to see the Stance ones and another company bringing a set to market soon.....its got linked damping but from what Ive seen from them so far they know how to do that better than the other companies product Ive seen/ridden on/installed. As of right now....I cant recommend any of the current product unless you can find Ksports for like $750 still.
#91
Really? you think so? Could you explain what makes them so win as compared to the other ones that are almost exactly the same? And how you came to this decision since theyve been trying to get the setup right for weeks on end and still havent actually sold any production units to my knowledge.....
#93
I dont rep Ksports for around a grand....only under $800, LOL. If you can get megans for $830 shipped Id say thats a decent deal too......Ive just never seen them under $900 shipped(I dont look either)

Which is the best? What do most Cobalt owners prefer. Please give me some detailed pros/cons. I have Koni's. The springs appear to be stock. It's a very stiff ride for obvious reasons, but it would be nice to have the adjustable ones like Tokico makes. Let's say you gotta take Granny to dialysis but you dont want the Cobalt to give her a heart attack. Can you adjust them to be really soft like Granny's old Bonneville? My exhaust is already echoing off the side of her house and I barely hit the gas. Enough to make her think I punched it or it makes her jump. She actually said, "could you turn it down?" LMAO! To myself. God bless her.

check my gallary for pics..i have them set to as high as they would go..which isnt really that high lower the stock height.....never enough auto they had a gb a few weeks ago but if you email them tthey maybe able to help you out....i have the coilovers set to the hardest setting and the ride isnt bad at all considering i was riding on blown struts for a year...but going to coilovers i'll never lower a car on springs again

thats good to know. and who do i PM about those? i would like to see about that. i was thinking springs, but i dont wanna worry about the factory stuff. so i feel coiloevers might be good for me.
