He's right...

The sad part is that there are very very few companies that make coilover setups that fit our cars properly and are designed well. The only one I'd personally buy is the RK Sport setup (Pro-Streets).

Also a side note, I'd highly suggest you NOT installing any type of coilover or spring kit without changing your struts/shocks. From your signature, it looks like you have a nice kitted sunfire. With stock struts you will easily bottom out and not have any type of support to keep your body kit from scraping on top of other dangerous things that can happen because of it. Also, your ride will be terrible.

Ground Control, Tien's, and Gravana's are also trustworthy.

with a paint job like that you would think you would atleast get struts w/ it. that car is gonna bottom out so bad over bumps you might as well forget about that paint job

Garbage in, garbage out, eh? Didn't you think to ask anyone about them before buying that crap?

also the reason why they are at stock height, alot of the old crap kits as said werent designed for the car...

hence the parts can actually make the car sit even higher. so at full lowering you still run the chance of stock height



if quality suspension was dirt cheap and abundant, we;d all handle like top end cars.
