i have apexi n1 exv's, and they have been exceptional.

experience>bandwagon.

besides, next year, hell even next month, the trends may be completely different.

i got the kts coils from splparts.com , had em for 1/2 year now & they have been great. a little rough on horrible roads but they soak up bumps well & i rarely get knocked off line due to an undulation in the road. also when drifting they are very predictable & stable when transitioning. btw you should also look into spl's subframe collars if you dont have em already. best bang for your buck suspension upgrade out there imo
