    Not everyone can afford the best of the best top of the line expensive parts that some may be able to, so ppl try and find a cheaper alternative. We all value each others opinion to a degree. I agree to an extent both sides, yes they may not be the best quality....but obviously ppl are trying them with good results..for now. Let's give it awhile and see what happens, might be ok might not be. But these ppl are brave enough to be guinea pigs so to speak. Im interested as well to see how these pan out. If they fail, we know not to use them, if not, we found another cheaper route to use. And im sure all of us would love to save some extra cash on this expensive hobby! Lol

    No they are not bouncy...they ride similar to stock but a bit stiffer...springs rate is what was on the add...any other info I don't know other then how they ride

    Then they're probably closer to 200/140 or less.

    Yeah I agree with you on that one...I don't know what the stock spring rates but these are similar in ride quality just a touch stiffer...stock my suspension was already pretty stiff though...I do know that I had to compress them a decent amount to get the tophats on

    Lol......
    Yes I did with eibach springs and guess what they were used and came off vinnies white coupe. When I had my AGX's on my regal I talked to others that had clunks noises from them aswell yet again how many people have negative reviews about these? Besides the Ohh they are too cheap and CANNOT be worth the 80 bucks hell if they ride fine and last a while one could buy at least 3 sets for the cost of what others are new.

    I'm looking into these springs, for this summer. It would make my suspension a hell of a lot cheaper to replace.

    i could see these being a useful option if youre just dropping on stock struts. if you're doing a rebuild with something more performance oriented i would definitely sway to something more proven with spring rates that are better suited for the application.

    I agree...on my stock comp g struts they work fine...if u want something really stiff get struts you can adjust and a spring to compliment them
