Question Anyone switch from COIL to SPRING???

Hey I just got my coilover installed and i really hate the ride quality and the squaky noises. The I told my shop and they say that they can put SKunk 2 coilovers on for free or I could just start the process all over again and get springs??? Im pissed cause these coilovers really suck.....it doesnt even look low.... I have 18's so my ride is going to be bumpy but i just about i hit my head on the cieling every time i drive my car!! I really would just like to be abale to have a nice low look with not so bad ride quality...

ANY ADVICE FROM EXPERIENCE????

Thanks,
KMan

Never had coilovers but I have 18s on Goldlines and the ride is not bad at all. I would go for springs (Goldline, Neuspeed, Eibach) or full coilovers (Tein).

Sleeves suck if you want adjustability get true coilovers, if your gonna change to springs I'd say go for H&R's they have a very good ride and thats including the race srpings.

-what coilovers do you have? they'll replace them free with skunk2s? or they'll just install skunk2s for free. "it doesnt even look low" well thats why you have coilover so you can adjust the height.
-i dont recommend sleeved coilovers for that reason. if your lowering your car on stock shocks stick to springs. if you getting new struts just spend the extra few bucks and get true coilovers
