Going to be ordering some coil overs and want to know who has the best ones?? and what are some cheaper alternatives that have quality??
My first choice would be mm but what else?? I think mm's are like $360

I have 2 sets from Griggs and 1 set from Ground Control. The Griggs are nice sets, but the Ground Control ones are not that great, my kit came directly from them and was incomplete, I had to modify the kit to make it work and the customer service SUCKS BAD. They wouldn't return calls and I kept getting the run around from them.
Good Luck

I would go with either Griggs or Maximum... both make great Coil-Over kits.

I have the Griggs front c/o setup on the mach, and love it. I used that, hypercoil springs, M/M C/C plates & Koni yellows. http://www.themach1.com/images/chris07.jpg There's a shot of it, just incase.

MM or Griggs. MM always strikes me as built for the street, griggs seems a little more track oriented. At least they both race and win on their own stuff, so you know there's solid engineering there.
I use MM and love them. There's nothing you can do that'll make as big a difference in your cars handling as a well set up coil over kit.

Bilstein 9300s. Oh, you mean for Mustangs?
Does the search function not work anymore? Does anyone say anything other than Griggs or MM when the question "who makes the best X suspension piece" is asked?

I am using these in the back. Coilovers
Then Steeda Coilovers front on Tokico Illumina's with Hypercoil Springs. Handles better then you would think. I do have something to compare against too, our 03 cobra has MM with DA Koni's and Hyper coils. Feels the same.
