The price scares me, but I am sure someone needs to do some R&D on them. Are you volunteering?

I think a little bird was trying to tell me something. cheep cheep

Just could not figure out what he said.

Ok, the cheap price comes from the fact that those are coilover sleeves, not true coilovers.

Coilover is a matched pair of ajustable shocks absorbers and coil springs... those are only an addon to your shock absorber that lets you srew a little thingie to adjust the spring compression and, in the meantime, the height of your ride.....

Those usually ride like crap, never had a good comment on that sort of thing in my 5 years in the neon/srt market so... to me it says a lot and enough just to not make me buy any.

Save yourself headaches and broken parts, go with real coilover if you can afford them, if not, go with usual lowering coil springs - lookup for a set of used one they'll go for the same price as this crap and it can't really get 'used ' anyway or if you're really broke.....well... have aq good night sleep this 'lowering my car idea' will have gone away during your sleep

No really, do it right or don't do it

sleeves suck. Buyer beware.

Hell no I am not volunteering. LOL I am not that desperate. I just wanted opinions. I am going with the stage 1 springs from Mopar.

I swear you will hate how your car ride with these. My friend has the same coilovers on his civic and he can feel every rocks/pot holes bumps and every time I see him coming down the road his car looks like a booble head haha.

Well it rides very nice on a very smooth road but yeah you feel those holes pretty easily for the 20 bucks mor get the lowering springs on the same "srt-4" ebay search and you will be happy...i have them and thats what i am ordering now

Coilover sleeves only suck when they are not matched to the correctly damped shock. Even then, I would only buy from a reputable company such as ground control. In the end its probably easier to just go out and buy a true coilover such as ipp or kw/mopar.
