If you're going to go as far coilovers buy a name brand that is proven. Suspension is important and a set of coilover isn't necessary better than strut/shock combo. For the first set of coilover I doubt it will be as good as the AGX/Eibach or the Tokico/Eibach.

I would give the first set a try if your not into autoX or road racing cause people never use all those adjustments mainly cause they don't know how to correctly. If I woudl have seen this I would have bought them but I already have a set of dropzones installed.

I would stick to a stock damper and springs over those.

Ha. I saw that too and laughed a bit.

Anyways, I wouldn't buy those coil overs. You just don't know what quality you are getting. (just look at the quality of the advertisement.... lol removable silencer)

Although if someone on this board does have those coil overs then please chime in.

The sell exhaust and obviously someone dropped the ball with the listing but doesn't make the kit any less quality. There a bunch of better options that cost a lot more money. I do not think piecing a kit together will be better no matter how much people knock it.

they might be worth buying for the spherical bearing upper hats, then throw away the rest.
