Raceland or Rokkor Tuning
im just about to order some Rokkor Tuning coilovers in a couple hours. just seeing what everyone thinks, if they could change my mind and just get the Racelands before i make the purchase. i cant see any advantages of getting Racelands over Rokkors. they both offer a 1" to 3.75" drop. both have 370 front/545 rear spring rates. both kits come with exactly the same contents(except Racelands gives stickers haha).
but,
-Rokkors are only $289 free shipping whereas Racelands are $308 free shipping.
-Rokkors offers a 3 year warrantee whereas Raceland only offers 2.
and anyways, i heard, or read in the raceland/rokkor threads that they are pretty much the same product. just renamed and sold for a diff price.
and before anyone makes stupid comments, i really dont care if im getting "low quality coilovers." im not gonna be tracking my car anytime soon. i dont drive harsh at all. im just planning on slamming my car.

I haven't heard of anyone blowing Rokkors yet. That and the price difference should be convincing enough.

jon yeah, thats pretty much what im leaning towards. $19 difference. hahha. but that $19 could go to those raceland stickers. wooo.....kidding btw
blake yeah, im planning on maxing the rokkors out. maybe take out a perch eventually. and i also heard they run stiffer, but their websites both say the same spring rates. why would one be stiffer than the other?

if your gonna get cheap coils, might as well get the cheapest! lol
im sure, they will both be fine for daily driving! and the warranty is nice if they will honor it, at least we know for sure racelands warranty was pretty decent!

hahhahaha, didnt think of that. rokkors are defly the cheapest in the market. and thats like the only thing holding me back from rokkors. cuz i know raceland will replace their stuff with no questions asked. ive heard many many stories about that. but for rokkors on the other hand, i havnt heard enough stories of them being blown or broken for people to be asking for replacements. so idk if their warantee is as good as raceland. maybe its a good sign that i havnt heard of any blow rokkors yet.

Well being the same company, I don't see why they wouldn't back the warranty like they do for the Raceland line. I wonder if they switched to better struts on the Rokkor line which is their reasoning behind the new name?

FYI you said "Rokkors offer a 3 year warranty whereas raceland only offeres 3", might want to clarify.
Honestly, if you want coilovers for your car, save the money you would use on these for REAL coilovers. What is the need for coils on your car? To slam it?

If all he wants to do is slam it, why waste a grand or more on performance coils?

If he wants to slam it, its going to f*** up the suspension anyways. Make the car look like crap. But if he goes with good coils, he won't have a problem blowing out like most racelands have had. Obviously these aren't racelands but in reality their all the same. Cheap.
