KW or Pedders?
Been looking at KW or Pedders Coil overs. Don't track the car enough to justify the big dogs, but would like to upgrade to entry level coil overs. The Pedders were out of stock for awhile so I had been looking at KW. Never heard of KW before, but the more digging I did the more they seem to be on top of there game. Feel free to share any opinions you might have on the subject.

KW all the way! Have always splurged on suspension in the past. Did KW coilovers and full Detroit Speed suspension. Couldn't be happier. First mod was Michelin Pilot sports and can literally throw the car into a corner. No roll, hop or slide. Never had a car handle like this. Haven't even played with damping yet.

They are both good products. I have always been a Pedders fan.

I did Pedders simply based on the amount of positive feedback I read on the forum. I love them, no complaints.

Both are good. The Pedders are just easy to adjust based on my experience.

I ended up going with Pedders. They were a little cheaper and in stock.

Where did you end up ordering them from? Southernautoparts canceled my order due to backorder with no ETA.
