not worth it and not comfortable.
Save your money and buy real coilovers.

or buy quality springs for the same price (TIEN)

Am in complete agreement with playr158 after making them myself in 2011 with a brand new set of Munroe shocks, aforementioned lowering springs and adjustable aluminium sleeves ... Car looked amazing, but the ride was closely comparable to driving a hard tail chopper ... Hit the slightest uneven part of road and it sounded like the car was gonna break, it was more of an ordeal than anything else. Back on stock suspension now thankfully and although she might not look as good, it's a way more enjoyable driving experience.

Plus my trolley jack wouldn't fit under the skirts when was lowered, so had to use the crappy toyota scissors jack to raise the height enough to get the trolley jack under ... frown.gif

I've had em on different Cars before... Ever hit a bump and your head hits the roof? Well if you want that than order them... If not than go with tien lowering springs or a real coilover kit. Megan's is like 599 I think its not the best but other have it installed on 6gs and love them. Or buy some tien lowering springs and some.good struts like koni yellows and you'll be set. Koni has lifetime warranty.. But.. Time you buy koni yellows and tien springs you could've gotten Megan coilovers.. I'd rather have koni yellows but that's just me.
