RUF Suspension

Sorry for all these questions on suspensions and SSK's, but I am ready to order my coilovers and want to make the right decision. How are the RUF coilovers?? I checked into the techarts, and I can't get them under $2800 which is too much when I can probably get the Bilsteins around or under 2k. I believe I can get a decent discount on RUF, so I am wondering how their coilovers fit in??
Thanks again,
Evan

I just got mine installed last light and I love u'm! They are valved differently from the normal PSS-9, but not sure how...it's a RUF secret. But I'd go for u'm if money isn't the issue. If not, the regular PSS-9s are a very fine kit too.

Evan,

The FULL RETAIL for the RUF PSS-9s are like $5,995, but Weissach retail price is $3600 I believe. That includes the rear sway bar.

Tech Art Coilovers

So how does the Tech Art coilovers compare to the Bilstein PSS 9's and the RUF's? How would you rank this from 1 to 5. 1 being the best ride/comfort and 5 being not so good scale?

Iam using the TechArt coilovers... I love them! I would expect to be stiffer, but they are just right for me.

I've tried the RUF and the TechArt (not the PSS-9 one)...I say the Techart is about 2.5 and the RUF is a 1. But then again, the RUF is adjustable and the TechArt I had wasn't. I also had the H&Rs...i'd say those are about a 3.
