I'm sure they are terrible. If you could get a picture of the coils that would help. The coil will either be like the thread of a bolt, or will be thicker. The thicker one wouldn't be too bad. Then you have to worry about the spring rate. It may bounce you all around. I wouldn't risk wasting my money. you get what you pay for. I originally had dropzone coilovers on my car and they had the bolt type thread. Some dirt got in the threaded and it quickly crossthreaded. I now have ground control which has a quality thick threaded coil and a good spring.

if youre on a tight budget, i would do what celica3sgte and get ground controls with a high quality shock. I had ground controls on KYB gr-2s and the ride quality was good for daily driving but not as stiff as i would have liked it. I would suggest finding an a shock that has an adjustable damping force for that extra stiffness. Dont buy the blue coilovers in your link, the springs are probably not very good and your ride quality will suffer. At least with ground controls your getting an Eibach spring. Much better. Hope this helps biggrin.gif

raise your tire pressure.. I drove with 50/48 Today.. I had body roll [plenty of it] but I gripped the road LOL

PS: dont do that in the street....


grab some Eibachs and GR2s my friend runs that combo in his Corolla and its stable. Little bodyroll and his tires [ES100] are very grippy [when warmed up]

If you want adjustble struts you can get some Koni
