Whiteline MaxG Coilovers
I have a good opportunity to buy these from a friend. I haven't hear too much from these brand of coilovers, but does anyone know how these compare to Fortune Auto 500, Bilstein, and KW? They would be going on a 2020 STI. I'm looking into better suspension for spirited driving, some track days, and something with good customer support/warranty.

Are you sure these are spec'd for a 20 STi? I went to the whiteline site and it tells me that they have nothing for your car.

Whiteline MaxG Coilovers
When they first came out Whiteline claimed they were made in partnership with AST, so they should be a solid upgrade with good quality.
I have used RCE (KW through Race Comp Engineering) and FA (the ones branded through Cygnus Performance). RCE Tarmac 0 were quality built but I didn't like they way they road on the street. Found them harsh. My FA with the same spring rate (7k/6k GD chassis) have a nicer ride to them and are very comfortable on the street while still being capable for track day events. The little bit of support I needed from both companies has been fantastic. |

- I think some vendors sell them. It's on the subimods or subispeed site sight for the 15, but don't understand why they don't have it up on the actual Whiteline website. The owner of these whiteline coilovers really liked them, but is selling them for a good price used at $1500 with maybe less than 10k miles(orig. $2500+).

Fortune 500's I read are the best bang for your buck and are within the United States with a 5 year warranty. I like Bilstein's, but are expensive new. These Whiteline coilovers, don't seem to be popular in the STI community, but read they are up there with Bilsteins and KW, etc. |
