Title: Yellow speed coilovers any good?
Post by: pistol pete on August 2, 2021, 20:06
I have found a couple of posts on here from years ago with people using yellow speed.

Anyone use them? what spring rates did you go for?
4/6 or 6/6 I am guessing 4/6 better suited.
Its a daily road car, I have been looking at BC's but these popped up too
Seem a good price from GT4-Play

cheers
Pete

I would say, define 'good'.

Good to me, are something like Ohlins or KW.

In that context, no, they are not good.

Are they good enough for you?

That depends on what you're looking for.

Don't bother if its a daily stock refresh is better.

Cheers people's..
In the end I've gone for bc's. They are what I know and always worked well for me
I like a harder ride.  Stock is too soft for me. But I can lower the car as my road is unmade. So had to compromise
Cheers

Each to their own.
I like MeisterR find BC to be stupid hard for road.
Fresh stock suspension isn't that soft especially if you polybush.
