I have two leaking rear shocks so its time to refresh the whole thing. I'm looking at three options Ohlins DVF Road and track, Bilstein PSS10 or Stock Bilstein (I saw on pelican parts that there are other bilstein options that use the stock springs as well - yellow colored sport and sport plus shocks).

My use of the car is mainly street (I'm located in NYC so the streets are in rough shape all of the time and/or adjustability and ride quality are important to me) and 2-4 times per year HPDE or AX.

Does anyone have any experience with the above mentioned options, obviously I know what the stock shocks feel like and I OK with them again. However, If going to be spending the $ I want to look at all my options.

I would go with the Ohlins R&T.

If the 996tt Ohlins ride anything like they do on my old S2000 then I would say get them for sure. They can be adjusted to be softer than stock suspension while still retaining good handling characteristics or you can really tighten them down when you hit the twisties! R&Ts are definitely what good suspension should feed like.

Ohlins hands down... ~30k on mine now

Ive been researching suspension allot lately and the best most comfortable and most compliant system for track days as well as Road driving are the Ohlins Road and track coilovers from the reviews Ive read.

What's the height adjustability on the ohlins compared to pss10's before they are bottoming out.

Carlo_Carrera

I think the Ohlins have as much height adjustability and maybe even a bit more than the PSS10s.

Would be looking for more. The oss10's hit a limit on how low they can go pretty quick

Wow thanks for the responses. Ohlins it is. I'm getting them from here seems to be the best prices around...

if anyone knows a sponsor or somewhere else to get them let me know I'm open to keeping the business in the RL community.

eBay seams to have the same price but FREE shipping so its cheaper on ebay.

Ohlins.

Tarett may be a sponsor. Ira is a genuinely good guy to support. Buy from them without hesitation.

I think both drop the car almost and inch right off the bat and the Ohlins can go at least another inch lower from there. That isn't enough?
