    Hi Shalna,
    yes they'd be fine for Drift use :)
    Shipping to Latvia should be £35

    Yes. We can provide damping adjustability too, but that would be with the Spax RSX coilover instead. Those are £675 inc vat for the version with front and rear height adjustment.

    Suspension is suspension, just because they are made in Japan does not make them special for drifting. Spax RSX coilies for £675 is good, and spax are decent.

    £35 is the shipping price for any set of coilovers.
    Tein coilovers are good, but the cheaper models aren't as anywhere near as good as the expensive ones .

    Suspension is not 'just' suspension and Spax are certainly not decent by any stretch of the imagination, they're cheap and cheerful serving a purpose at the bottom rung of the ladder. IMHO.

    I'd strongly recommend against buying K-Sports, they're pretty poor quality in terms of performance and durability, hence why we stopped selling them a long time ago, Spax are MUCH better for the money, and if you want some really, genuinely good coilovers then spend the extra on KWs.

    Incidentally we've done some testing with the Supersports, they're a good setup, ideal for fast road and amatuer level drifting. For serious competition I wouldn't recommend them since they're a little soft, but they do feel VERY nice and very composed on the road. Fantastic value for money!!!!
