....that is the question. I wish to change out my stangs suspension system. I think coil overs look great, but are they functional for a street driven car? -- I'm want to gear my car towards "road race" as oppose to "drag race" (although I'll take the stang to the 1/4 every now and then). - <FONT color=blue size=3>What are the Pro's and Con's on Coil Overs for a car that will be mostly on the street?</FONT></P>

On that I have an idea..... Coil-overs are not that expensive. Front I've seen from $230 - $470 (pair) and $135 -$320 (rear) depending on the adjustability. My question is more of an application issue. I drive more on the streets than on a course (whether 1/4 mile or cross or road race) so my main concern is a good balance thereof.</P>


ps - for those interested I saw a great sale, chrome-moly K-Member, A-arms, Caster/camber plates,bar and coil-overs for only $695 (any rate spring). </P>
