ok so i posted up last time and they stoped my thread to tell me to search. and i got some messages saying megan streets were good but than i searched that and i heard thing about them breaking.

looking to spend like 900 not trying to have some ultra crazy suspension. need just a good piece of handling and mostly for lowering dont want to get spring tho.
can someone help thansk

 

Megan Street Coilovers... can't go wrong with them.

 

Moved to the right forum.

There seems to be a misconception on lowering with a proper set of springs. I would search/read about the Swift, GTWorx, Robi springs.

 

i cant just used coilovers lower the car

 

i was running on the track editions for about 6 months before i got into my accident (unrelated, obviously) and i never had a problem with them.

 

On the other hand, I've heard of people having problems with them after two weeks.

 

I got BC Racing coilovers that will be on sale soon for cheap.

Megan = BC = other coilovers in that price range. Don't expect phonamonal coilovers for $1k, but they are decent.

 

I've had my Megan streets for about 3 years, zero issues. If you searched you would find about 5 or 6 different reviews, all positive. I would bet 99.9% of the negative feedback come from people who didn't even use them. Their excuse? You get what you pay for. The other
.1% actually might have had a problem.

 

They are great for the money spent. Are there better coilovers out there ABSOLUTELY. I have the Megan Tracks and like them alot. I have only done one track day and 2 autocrosses but they did very well I have 0 complaints

 

+1

had mine on my ix for 45k miles, daily driven. not one issue. best bang for the buck.

i have bc's on my X and they are a little better then the megans, ride is almost like stock.

 

I have Megan Track for a year and 3 track days and no complaints about it.

 

if im not mistaken BC Racing is the company that manufactures the coilovers for megan racing and apexi, they started selling coilovers with their name on them a couple of years ago

 

If you want a budget coilover, Megan is the way to go for sure. Also, the new street sets coming in will finally have 7k/8k spring rates instead of the old 8k/6k.

99% of peoples problems with Megan, or any coilover usually point back to install or maintenance. There was a bad batch of camber plates that had to be take care of through you vendor.

Feel free to PM me if you want some additional info on Megans.

 

Megan Racing coilovers...I heard are the same as Apexi coilovers. Can't go wrong with that!!

 

they are not "the same" technically, both companies have their coilovers produced through the same coilover manufacturer, design and r&d are done through the company itself but they out-source for actual production, so the quality in production may be similar but the quality of the materials used and the design of the coilover will differ depending on how the companies (i.e. apexi or megan) want there coilovers built (i.e. if they want to cut cost by substituting a lower grade metal)
