Bilstein PSS10

Any one have any comments in these coilovers?

Saw a good deal on these for our cars and wasn't sure if it was worth investing in.

Got banned from what we can tell. He could be a bit infuriating at times, but he sure was entertaining at times as well.

I had the PSS 10s for about a year.

I did like them over stock. It really depends though, what you are intending them for. If you want a competent road coilover with some adjustability then yes, they are worth the price. I would even venture to say that they are okay for some occasional track use or spirited driving.

If you want a more track focused car, or drive on a lot of rough roads, then I would say no. The springs are progressive but overall soft in both the front and rear, and can bottom out unless the damping is turned up, which then makes for a more uncomfortable ride.

... Which is why I had to upgrade to AST 5300s

All that being said though, a lot of the compliance can still be found in the proper tire, Michelin SuperSports have a stiff side wall, and make for a bumpy ride regardless of what setup you have.
