Coilover ride along around Philly

I’m in the market for a set of coilover for my M2C. Looking for a ride along with someone in the Philly area to see if I wanna shell out the cash. I’ve done a few months of research and not positive which direction to go. Looking at the bilstein, 3dm ohlins, a few KW V3 variants and TCKLINE.
My goal is to lower the car around 1”, improve handling, road manners with hopefully some more compliance.
Not gonna track the car, used as a weekend ripper.

If you are not looking to track the car, don’t do Tckline DA’s. Just do the singles. I have TCKLINE da’s and they are noisy under 40mph. They are great at the track. I live in Philadelphia so thought I’d reply.

SA front/DA rear is great on the street, not noisy, and what was recommended. I think it’s the fronts that create the additional noise. Very happy with my tc Kline kit and the ride.

Hey man! I’m in Philly. I have silvers suspension on if you want to try that. I’m back in town on the 25th!

The TCKline sa/da is the kit I’m looking at since they are quite, and well reviewed. what spring rate you guys have? The 300/600 or the 400/700. Also who did the install?

I went with 300/600. I had a local shop install them, but then had to get a different ship to do the alignment. This was partially due to the fact my stock rear spring snapped and didn’t have the time to do my homework on a good shop to do the whole job. Sometimes I wish I went with 400:700 because at first I felt it was a bit soft, but now I have my settings on the rebound/compression a bit firmer than suggested and love how it rides.

I have Ohlin R&Ts with GC camber plates on my M2C (installed by previous owner). Haven't driven stock suspension but really like the R&Ts. I'd be happy to meet up and give a ride around - I'm in Chesco
