Default Things they don't tell you about Coilovers

Hey guys,

Coil-overs sound great on paper and when done RIGHT, lead to great results.

What are some of the things that don't get highlighted too much until you really begin to dive deep into the process:

Some things to start the conversation:

Additions to coil-overs: New control arms and such to maintain spec camber

Cornering balance and alignment

Cost of Installation usually

Overall comfort while not on track preferably a good setting that balance track and road use. i know there is a "softer than stock setting"

Ease of use to adjust settings between track and road use

Life span (mild track use)

Tire wear??

All i can think of right now. Maybe someone can share their comments on the above and/or provide additional topics that don't come to mind. Who knows, maybe i hit all of them on the head


Thanks fellas
