Pedders is nice stuff, and their dealer network, under the direction of Justice Pete, is second to none.

they want to give us a group buy on these coilovers at an excellent price!!! $1299 with a 20% non refundable deposit. if you don't preorder,then you are looking at $2300!!! these are fully adjustable with 30 settings. road test on these say they practically eliminate torque steer and no alignment is need. if it's okay with the powers that be,please contact them on becoming a vendor. they said they would love to help our community and they are very helpful and friendly. the first batch will arrive sometime early-mid june. they are ready to be sent to the states as they are being shipped from aussie. since i already ordered,i will place my name down first.

I have Pedders springs and LOVE them, my issue with these is the fact that there is very little info available right now, AND they look entirely too much like Megan Racing coilovers for it to be coincidence. I hope someone proves me wrong.

do they fall off the rear if you hit a big bump ??? the rear look funny to me , but i don't know..this is why i ask.....i'm seriously thinking about trying the $100 ones on fleabay....yea , i'm willing to be the guinea pig , if no one else has tryed them yet....i seen no negative feedback yet on them , but that may be because you only have a limited amount of time to leave feedback on the fleabay.

why would anyone pay that much for these? there is no way it handles better than airbags. which is about the same price.
feel free to yell at me if im wrong

Along the same lines, we offer KW Coilovers that are TUV (European road authority) approved. Two variants - one for street (fixed damping but adjustable height) and one with adjustable height and rebound damping. Here is the link:

I would have to see your wife first. LOL - joking. I have one wife and that is already more than I can handle sometimes. And I just had a baby - no time for another one! LOL

Yes, a well engineered coilover that wasn't made by some dude in a garage will always be a bit pricey. These have to pass strict regulations to be street legal in Europe, much more so than the US standard. If you are putting your wife and child into the car and expect to have the safety and handling to escape from a trouble situation, I certainly wouldn't want to cheap out on any of the following: tires, wheels, suspension, brake pads, brake rotors :thumb:

I like joking during the day - makes my job fun.

I don't expect to sell very many of these...its a premium product and very few people will be interested, but I figured I'd let everyone know about it just in case.

feel free to yell at me if im wrongYour air bags are an adjustable supporting device. The coil-over shocks shown here use an adjustable spring for support instead of air. But also have the shock absorber hydraulic damping as well. Difference? More control of the suspension arm. Handling winner? Subjective to the owner but you don't see a lot of air bag suspension in high end racing vehicles (yet:D).
