Cool Whiteline Group 4 Coilovers?

I'm curious to see how many of the members on this site use these? I'm hearing good things on all the sites concerning them-the fact they not only perform at the track yet have an incredible street ride. Maybe someone out there can confirm this. These are not cheep but could be the last suspension upgrade I'd do to my 02 X'. Also if there is a vendor that you recommend-good deal and service, thanks danielle

I have them. The ride is great on the street (1-2 clicks), and gets much stiffer from there as you turn up the clicks. On the track they have been doing great as well. I was really happy with my choice to get them.

I'm running all whiteline:
G4 coilovers
27-29mm front sway bar
22-23-24mm rear sway bar
ALK
Front and rear adjustable endlinks
--Have had the car corner balanced

It is more than tolerable and has great grip on the track.

I haven't had a chance to try these out on the track, but can confirm these are not nearly as bone jarring as other coilovers for street use. They're surprisingly comfortable, relatively speaking. I had the fronts revalved (added an extra shim) to make them a just a tad bit stiffer, per Arnie's recommendation.

Aside from being one of the best streetable coilovers out there, Whiteline is top notch with its customer serivice. Arnie seriously goes above and beyond to make sure you are satisified with the G4s.

I wish I bought these G4s when I first bought my car instead of experimenting with other setups.
