Once you decide to adjust the height...I guess you have to get an alignment every time???

Inquiring minds want to know...

I am happy with mine (BC's)

They are stiff in the rear and i have a 5k back there now (this also has to do with the bump stops since im sooooooooo low) I am probably gonna go to a 4k here soon.

As far as nice.... I have had them on for 20k i believe and havent had a single problem. Not bad in my eyes.

Just realized this is an old thread. Nothing is ringing when you say "5K back there, going to 4K" whats that mean? Never heard of that before.


Where did you buy them?

Since this thread likes being resurrected...

Still got these on the car? Spent most of my week so far reading up on Coilovers and while NO ONE can give me a GOOD reason NOT to buy these, everyone says they are too cheap to be good. Through my other discussions I've learned that stiff springs don't necessarily mean stiff/rough riding as long as the dampening is good enough. Would you say that the dampening is good enough on these to allow for stiff handling yet, ok ride quality?
