jom coilovers vs billy sports and h&r...

[Sputnik]

I've been debating with my self on which setup up to get, but i really don't know which one is better in the long run. since the jom's are $380 I have my doubts on the quality, but it is a big difference price wise compaired to the billy sport setup. I want (obviously) a lowered and aggresive stance, but nothing thats scraping the floor and effecting its daily driver capability. I'm planning on attending an autocross and hpde's every now and then if that make any difference.

so based on your personal experience which would be the more superior setup?

billies will last at least 3 times longer than the other ones.

Seems like no one here knows how long the JOM shocks are going to last.....but billy's are proven.....

[CabrioPunk]

Ya, no saying how long for JOMs. No history on this application.

My dad has been running his billie sport h&r sport combo since 88. Still feels fresh.

My car has 4000 miles on the JOM coilovers and they are still like new. If that makes any difference lol

Wow I never would have expected any shocks to last this long.

I had the H&R sport springs+Bilstien sports and drop hats on my car and i loved the setup! Handled amazingly and it was hard not to take corners fast and make your buddys mustang look like a prius, no complaints whatsoever on the ride quality the only issue i had was i wanted to go lower so i got the JOM coilovers on the group buy! I love the JOMs too and they ride really nice and are perfect for daily driving and having a really low stance! But i wouldn't recomened tracking the JOM kit or driving enthusiasticly. Its just good for normal daily driving and doesnt come close the performance you get out of the H&R setup but its cheap and rides good and now i dont feel the need to fly past my friends on the way to work.

H&R+Billies= Amazing ride, good performance, pretty low stance, higher price.

JOM Kit= Amazing ride, stay away from the track, as low as you want stance, cheap price.

im wondering the same thing but for a vert

I was on the fence about the same thing for my coupe but went with what was tried and true. Both of my cars have the Billies and H&Rs with 15mm drophats and feel great. Of course, I would like to be lower but im ok with the stance.

Im going to see how these JOMs hold up with time but with all the positive comments, it may be sooner than later for this C/O set up...on a different car.

This is me to a T. I'm really debating whether to switch to the JOM kit, I can sell the H&R/Billie stuff for whatever that kit costs.
