I'll tell you what, and you can say what you want about the price point and lower end coilovers, I have zero regrets going with the silvers coilovers. My car mainly sees track days and few street miles, my impression is nothing but positive on this brand. If you're actually building a race car(99% of us are not) then obviously you're going to want to drop some coin on a known top manufacturer. I however am not, and I love the performance upgrade I've gotten out of these over the stock suspension and also the BMR springs I had.

Sometimes you actually can pay less and get a quality product that will serve it's purpose. I feel like this is one of those times

Exactly, you can spend 5k on the supposed best coilover on the market but if you're getting passed by a car with 2k coils, they last just as long and ride good who is really ahead of the game. Spending more doesn't equate to better

Any update on this? I'd love to give their 2 way coilovers a shot if they ever come out with them.

Nothing yet, so far i just have an approval for the project from HQ. Waiting on some designs or prototypes to float my way. Fronts are no problem but mounting the external canister on the rear damper is the challenge because of how tight the rear suspension clearances are.
