Default NEW Q; DROPZONE COILOVERS - Already Searched

What's the story on these? Any good?

$750.00 for four.

Anyone have any dealing with these things?

I've only heard terrible things about these. On the other hand I've only heard great things about Koni/Ground Control, but I don't have any personal experience with either.

Hmm, there are only so many manufactures in the world making struts and shocks.

Is the valving wrong or short on design or something?

I know what I saw in other threads, but nothing was substantiated by anyone with experience or credentials.

Still wondering.

They are ****, I know from experience. I had DZ's on my accord and they were absolutely horrible. I tried my damndest to get rid of them but ended up selling the whole car instead. I also know 2 or 3 people that have had similar shitty experiences with them, and one of those guys had a real problem with springs sagging over time. Dropzone=**** IMO.

if i were you, i would get a good set of shocks (illuminas, koni, etc) and get dropzone coil sleeves. believe me, its a good *** combo. i vouch for DZ coil sleeves day in and day out. i have illuminas, DZ coils, f/r strut bars, Suspension Tech rear sway/tie bar combo and my car handles . . . . amazing! this is all on 14" steelies and azenis too.
