Stances aren't bouncy, they have superior dampening then megans, pbms, or d2's.
They stick just as well as those stiff a** cheap coils but provide a much more comfortable ride. If you don't care about ride quality, get the megans or PBM's, but if you do, get Stance or Fortune Autos.

Alot of ppl forget that the "bounciness" you experience is not form the coilovers, but from your stock 205/55-60/16 tires.
too much sidewall thus causing more bounce.

and KC: your stance blew after 15k??? which coilover blew? and did you adjust/lower them through preload or the correct way??

I purchased Stance GR+Pro's...$1,2550 shipped from stancepowerhouse.com

I wanted something with a good entry level reputation. I plan on taking these to the track soon.

The fronts blew, and yes I lowered it the correct way, I never messed with the preload or anything

I went with megan streets and couldn't be happier for the price. They were only 3 months old and I got them used for only 350. Shop around.
