last time i heard about the b&gs was when they costed about nearly a grand. but i dunno, maybe theirs different model types. but from what i heard of those you listed... their all good coilovers. it just depends what ur doing with the car.

all coilovers will make noises if not installed right. the b&gs are good. they lower more than the teins, but they aren't dampening adjustable. they are self adjusting. the d2's aren't as good of a company as tein or b&g.

are they $750 new? from a company? Fill me in on this awesome deal.

btw, I have the first generation B+Gs and I love them. I hear the threads aren't as thin as they used to be, so raising and lowering shouldn't be too bad.
