or am i practically commiting suicide?

from my understanding, you will bounce all over the place

well......for only $9.95 you aren't going to be getting much...it will make your ride lower but it will be a rough ride...this isnt from personal experience but from the info ive read...i seriously only think there has been like 2 guys on here that made them ride good...again not my personal experience

A)Coilovers suck.
B)I thought there was a rule about posting ebay links unless they are for something YOU are selling.
C)If i were to buy coilovers i wouldnt buy cheap ebay ones.

ive learned that the ebay rule is ok if your showing what your talking about and i cant really think of to many people who would flock over these things.

I have a set of DropZone coilovers im going to install this weekend along with a set of KYB AGX adjustable shocks. If your going to get a set of coilovers. Get something worth paying for. Ebay coilovers arn't what you want.

Im going to try Eibach and KYB AGX. Id like to do Tein and KYB. They got the green springs to match! A lil to rich for my blood tho.

ebay coilovers like that usually are the same exact spring for many different applications. Therefore the spring rates for their springs are like 500 a piece. your ride will be all over the place and your stock struts will last maybe 30 mins.

"Stock struts will last 30 minutes"

Give me a break!!!!!!!!!!!!! My girl and I rode on shitty coilover sleeves on stock struts with around 160k miles on them for 3 freaking years. It took 2 of those years before the struts were completely gone! 30 minutes.... please, stop exagerating.

1) The coilover sleeves you pictured are shit... make no mistake. They will bounce, no matter what you do... but you can make it a little better by getting good struts. Your strut warranty will be void though so keep that in mind. But like I said, they WILL bounce.

2) Your car will not be "all over the road". See above comment for clarification

3) The top hats (centering caps) on cheap coilover sleeves are usually plastic. If you get one that has aluminum top hats, you're gold..... BUT that would be in a perfect society which we are not. The plastic hats WILL bind inside your strut mount at the top of your suspension setup. This isn't a big deal but It pretty much kills the point of having a top hat. As stated, try to get one with a aluminum top hat.

4) DO NOT roll these all the way down unless you carry BC powders in your car. You WILL get a headache from all the bouncing.

5) I run cheap coilover sleeves

6) If you want to buy aluminum top hats for sleeves that come with plastic ones, they're going to run you $40 a piece from Skunk2. I don't know if they fit but I know that Skunk2 will sell them to you. Just tell them you bought some Skunk2 coilovers used and they didn't come with them.

You are better off buying lowering springs, I had those a long time ago on a diff car and my stock struts went out in less than a week. I have ST springs on my car now and it rides great. I will never run a sleve coilover.

[trixxy_cb7]

suspension preference is 100% opinion....either yours or someone else's....but we have two cars with omnipower street full coilovers. they are awesome
