Now the question is - WHICH ONES? too many choises. I see GC, H&R, PSS9, Dinans, etc.

I'm sure each have their pros and cons - here's what I'm looking for:
- Comfortable ride, do NOT want stiff and uncomfortable ride compare to stock
- Easy to install, meaning no modifications left and right. Hopefully an assy I can do a direct swap
- Easy adjustment - not that I will do too much adjustment (each time you adjust, you need an alignment, right?), but the idea of having to tear up the rear deck to adjust means might as well stay with stock?
- lastly, of course, cost... and hopefully I can pick one up this week locally


Thanks all.
You really only have a few choices. H&R has been less than satisfying to many people. Cost is low, but quality and ride are not fantastic. Dinan does not offer a true coilover system, they have spring setups. Both the GC and PSS9's are nice quality, GC is working on a new system as we speak that will allow adjustment of the rear's without removal from the car. If you want to run 275's up front, GC is the only one that will clear it. The other option is KW Variant's, decent product as I understand but I don't know a lot about them. Hope this helps.
