My first set of coilovers was Pedders. (I'm on #4 now). I had them for one season on the track and sold them to upgrade to Pfadt Racing. The guy I sold them to messaged me back after 6 months and said they were leaking. Not the first case of failed Pedders I read about. Pfadts were good but any track shock needs to be rebuilt and of course they started leaking and it cost at the time $250 a corner to have redone. I used them for a few more years and then went with RideTech HQs. Had those for 5 years and no issues other than the drop cannot be higher than 1.5 inches. That was too low for me and I just bought a set of KWs which got me at the 1 inch drop I wanted. Whatever direction you go, save your old struts. You'll likely need pieces off of them for the coilovers and if you decide down the road you want to go back to a Bilstein or other quality shock you'll be glad you did. I did not save my struts and had to search for all the bits needed for the new coilovers. I had considered going with the Bilsteins but out of stock for a while.
