anyone able to answer my other question for me? Do I need cambers right away after the coil installation? I have rear camber and front camber bolts, will the bolts do the job? Any recommendations?

you dont need a camber kit to instsall these. You will need an alignment because your front toe angle will be horrible

I have these and have no complaints, not as bouncy as everyone says. you will need and alignment but it shouldn't horrible. mine was barely out of wack.

I live out in the boonies man, Amelia County, but I work over at Brown's Volkswagen on Midlothian Turnpike. Nice to know someone else with an EP hatch in RVA.

.:RBluHatch

Hope I'm not crucified for resurrecting this thread, but its the best one I could find on these kits.

If anyone that posted still frequents the forum, let me know how they held up or how they died and after how long! Thanks!

Hated mine on my DC5. If i was CA i probably would of loved them. Anyone need some for a DC5?

Zedicous

On my 06 DC5 i put Eibach front bolts and Ingalls on the rear. The car drives perfectly. I also have an extra set of Eibach bolts, i thought i was going to need them but didn't.

they have a lifetime warranty so if anything goes wrong youll be able to get a replacement, one of the best warranties ive seen...they also have ultimos for the ep3 now that actually have decent spring rates

*Sigh*....just a note....good dampers for cars are are very involved. You need high quality steel, tight production tolerances and killer QC...Ricelands have none of these. I often tell people that if they want to buy a set of coilovers that will really make their cars handle better, plan on spending about $500 a corner. Thats what it takes. These shocks are total crap, put 10 of them on a shock dyno and you will see 10 different charts, take 10 of the springs and put them on a tension meter, you will get 10 different reading. Think I am full of it? go onto the SCCA forum...you know, the one where people that race cars are on....search riceland....there are half a dosen people that have tested these in their shops on their equipment.

the frase "You get what you pay for" fits these very well...

fact of the matter is most people do not have $2000+ to spend on suspension and most people would see it as a waste for daily driving or the occasional trip to the drag strip, as these coils are not the best on the market i sympathize with the people that are unable to afford adequate suspension for their car, these do provide a cheap alternative. im not disagreeing with you in the least but you have to realize not everyone is going to look at their car the same way you do and they are going to find cheap alternatives to coils that are more expensive and out of their reach at this time.

You are correct that not everyone has the cash for a $2000 suspension, but personally no matter how good the warranty is, I would not want something that is going to have a spring snap or shock body come apart while driving (especially at highway speeds) like they are known to do. Essentially these things have "no-name" quality with a name slapped on them. You wouldn't back a no-name brand from ebay would you?

nahonda04...I get where you are comming from but I want people to Understand what these things are and what they are not....IMO, they are so bad that they are going to get someone killed if they have not already. These are the same thing as a noname parashoot....I don't know about you but I am not jumping out of an airplane with a noname parashoot and I would never put Ricelands on a car simply because I enjoy being above ground rather than 6 ft under it.

DaveSi677

Honestly Raceland are pure utter **** period!

I would be caught dead with these are my car... I also understand that people will try to find a cheaper route but if you want to do your suspension you might as well wait a few more weeks save some more money and get some quality parts!

What's all this talk about a great warranty, last time i checked they had a 2yr warranty.
