my porsche was lowered and it rubs when you hit dips in the road I ****en hate it.I want to buy a set of coilovers for it which ones are good

 

How was it lowered?

 

There are a number of choices that are referenced here, this is by no means the list of good or bad but more from my memories:

1. bilstein PSS-10
2. Ohlins R/T
3. KW-V3
4. JRZ
5. .........

There are other variants but the ones above have had loyal followings from several of us here on this forum.
Search coil over and there is a ton of reading materials
You will have supporting parts to consider like drop links and other parts...

 

On the street run springs and twin tubes (aka)konis

 

not enough info: ttboost: prolly lowering springs, maybe shocks are shoot!.

which coilovers are good. depends? pss9's thats blistein are a nice set for street use.

 

jrz coilovers with 600/800 lb springs. rebuilt by olsen motorsports in chicago. best shop in the country for suspension work

 

( just sneaking this in, but it IS OT ( for once )..

what does everyone think of my installing a near mint set of gt3 coil overs and i've got a new set of stubbed axles so i'll be able to keep my stockers intact.. and once and for ALL bail on the dumb** diff that i still have hanging by a thread having only removed my cardan shaft and already long since had installed a wavetrac tbd lsd for true rwd happiness and sideways activity

i'm putting together my parts list can anyone ( steve? ) chime in with what besides gt2/3 uprights/toe linkscamber plates and the stubbed axles i might need.

you guys'd puke if you knew how friggin cheap i have these scored at. i just need to ascertain the mileage make sure they dont need any revalving bs. i have some tech friends thats for sure. oh and 250 labor to install ALL

i'm also gonna hit up pwdr for his freely offered and greatly appreciated advice. i've waited TOO long to finish properly my rwd conversion, but have felt NO downside to my MO30 w h&r springs setup!?! but, it's "time" as someone else will grab these in a ny minute, if i don't.

so..any thoughts re gt3 coil setup?? maybe this'll help the op, and not divert the thread. sorry if it does/did.

 

for primarily street? look into these or higher end hr rss? setup. these two setups are under full track duty setups and have been well proven to be a workable compromise:
