What are the best coil overs to use in the ITA class? I just ordered some Koni Adjustable shocks, and would like to upgrade the rest of the suspension.

thanks

You can not go wrong with Ground Control!

is there a big differnce between the cheap sets you see on ebay, and the more expensive one? I do have koni adjustable shocks, so i want to go with whatever will work best with them

the cheap sets on ebay typically have mystery spring rates.
With Ground Control you can order custom rates/lengths

You cannot go wrong with either the Ground Control or Skunk2 sleeves. The GC's can be machined for the Koni "yellow" sport shocks whereas you will need to buy the adaptor plates from Koni to use with the Skunk2 sleeves. I am using the Skunk's and they are justfine. Both companies use Eibach ERS springs and will tailor the rates to what you need, based on their experience and your input.

Happy holidays

I dont believe Skunk2 uses Eibach Race Springs.

Just buy the GC kit if youre totally set on adjustable springs.

OPM Motorsports have a good coil over system.

Tyson-I cannot argue the point except to say that the part numbers I have from Skunk for 2 completely different spring packages are the same basic numbers that Eibach uses. For what it is worth the springs are red with white numbering indicating the ID, Length, Rate.
