    You'd be better off buying new coilovers man in fairness.

    But you'll find a set no problem on driftireland.com.

    Nowhere will sell them pairs, most will be the full set only.

    A full new set should cost around €800 for something decent.

    Again driftireland.com, we've often sold a pair of rears or fronts when the spring or damping rates didn't suit!

    You shouldn't just slap on random coilovers. They need to be work with the spring rate on the rear of your car.

    Also the choice of spring rate will effect your handling dramatically.

    You could make your car an understanding pig or have unpredictable over-steer if you set it up just on spring rate.


    How are you setting up your car and for what reason?
    Drift?
    Road?
    Grip?
    Compromise?
