You can't hear anything in a Volvo because the undercoat is like tar. Thick ugly sticky tar. And some seam sealer.
I gotta admit that 5 sounds badazz.and the sweet purr of that 5 cylinder
right now i have 245/45/17 wheels tires with stock springs,shocks,struts. my front struts are bad so i know replaceing them will help but i just didnt get chance to do it yet.......whays your setup?
.....and that's during the summer months!
They are notched now, great for weight savings, same centerline as stock, a arms available with spring perches if needed. The coil overs will allow you to adjust the front height...
Ive used the UPR K-member for years with no issues, street and race cars. IF you need one I'm a UPR dealer and can give you a deal
Now this is just bullNope, sorry. Just dropped $700 on Tokico Blue's, new springs and isolators last fall. Don't like the jarring my teeth loose, banging feel of every bump on the road being transfered through my car and certainly don't want to hear every squeak in the front end that coil over kits provide along with it. These Fox's make enough noise. The roads in my city are some of the worst around and I don't like the idea of all of the front end stress being hammered into my strut towers directly on a daily basis.
I would only consider going tubular for the purposes of header clearance and weight savings.
Now this is just bull****, but I guess it's what happens when buyers seeking a pricepoint buy lowest-price crap. There is nothing, that's nothing, about a properly developed and properly made coilover kit with properly matched springs for the application that generates any of the complaints you just listed. But if you buy those shiny ones because hey, they're cheaper than those ripoffs who know what they're doing, and because the seller gives you super-fantastic details about the spring rates like "street/strip" and "race", well...that's what you get. But DON'T go paintinig the entire category of coilovers with the same ****-stained brush.
I installed these coilovers years ago when I lived in the frost-heaved midwest, but my experience is irrelevant. The fact remains, there's nothing inherently rough or noisy about coilovers. It's when you install crap components and poorly-matched springs and struts that you run into problems.
