I'm not the best guy to give advice on this, but Scott Tackett, my roomie, and I were talking about these last night and he was telling me that these are really great and some of the best out there. And they're only around $1200. But then again he could've been referring to drifting as well. But I think he's aware that I want to try to set my truck up for drift and track.

I like mine alot but I dont have anything to really compare them too. matt said he really liked how my car handled saturday and he is used to his CST coils. I think they have a good reputation for grip as well.

I said GR+, not pro's.
Yes to pants and grip driving. They've proven they're worth over the years.
/personal opinion.

If Koni dampers and ground controls are available, got that route. At least that way if a damper blows, you can send it off to be rebuilt and not have to buy a whole new set.

always a plus. Not many companies making coilovers out there do that.

I have pants and love them.
I heard bad things about JIC and TEIN customer service. So I went with what I have now. I think Silk Road are suppose to be best, but they also cost 700 bucks more.
The only thing that pissed me off is that the pants coils are made in china.
