RS-R Best-i Coilovers review

[E90076]

Wanted to follow up with everyone now that I’ve got some miles on the RSRs. My install shop did some final height adjustments and it’s looking great…I’ve paired some H&R 15mm spacers as well which were a game changer. The rear clunking noise has been resolved so the only additional NVH associated with this set-up is limited to some slight clicking noises from the springs themselves but to be honest, it’s very faint and I have the same on some Carbahn springs for another vehicle. Overall, I can recommend the RSRs for anyone looking for a fast street/canyon setup with occasional track days. You’re likely going to want something more hardcore (ie KW clubsport level) for a dedicated track car.

I also had the Spoon rigid collars installed and highly recommend that for anyone doing coilovers. Before the collars were installed, the coilovers highlighted some shudder in the chassis over bumps. That’s all been eliminated and the chassis feels solid post-install. Also think the collars made the front end slightly more quick to respond to steering inputs.

The car is super dirty but here’s a few photos with the revised ride height and spacers.

Looks good!
I’m also on RSR coils and have the same clicky sound on the front right side of the car

Nice write up. This is on the list of to do's, blackhawkjapan seems to have a crazy price on these compared to others.
