I was wondering if anybody has these? if so are they pretty good quality? do they ride good? cause i found some for only $150

 

do not buy

 

Would there be any that you would recommend? I used to have air cylinders on my car but compressor fried so i went back stock and sold the kit, now i need some coilovers

 

Skunk 2 or Ground Control only if you want good ride, The rest as they say is what you pay for JuNK. This is a critical component in your suspension setup. Go cheap it rides like crap. I seen and heard it too often. Unless your using it mostly for show, get the good ones.

are you looking for a full coilover setup or simply coilover sleeves?

full coilover setups i would run and not costly....

Apex'i WS
Tein Basic
Omnipower

Coilover Sleeves I Would Run....

Ground Control Paired With High Quality Damper...

PS... Stay Away from Arospeed....they sell garbage...

 

arospeed coilovers are fine! only reason people hate them is because of the stiff spring rates. GC's come with soft spring rates like 350/280 while arospeed's come with 450/350. and most people use OEM shocks on coilovers which give the bumpy *** rides.

really tho how many reviewers that say bad use oem shocks or some tokico blue's, kyb gr2's???

i personally have some koni yellows on skunk coilovers 560lb/in on all 4 corners. btw i wouldnt recommend this on the street, its damn stiff!!!!

oh and it depends on what u want, race suspension, or show suspension??? if u want race suspension get stiff spring rates, if u want show, get some soft spring rates.

Uh, no. They are quite possibly the worst 'coilover' evAr! Had some for 3 months and it was the worst possible ride quality and this is with AGX shocks. If you wanna know what it feels like, ride in a trailer that doesn't have an suspension, just tires, and then take that feel and its WORSE!!!! Horrible, horrible. I now have Apexi full coils

 

ummm.....what are your spring rates for apexi coilovers???

as said in my statement above, if u want a soft ride and drop then get coilovers with soft rates, if u want someting stiff get something with stiff spring rates.

it all depends on what the driver needs.

and if u drover my car with koni yellows and skunk coilovers, u'd say its the worst setup like "a trailer that doesn't have an suspension, just tires" and u want the OEM soft ride with the lowered look....

 

I saw just stick with some good ol springs ..... also if im not mistaken Arospeed is junk in a box.....my shocks have been dead for over a year and on my sportlines my 6th is STILL smooth, not smooth as before but still smooth

I don't mind stiff feel and actually prefer it to mass body roll, but Arospeed coils are unbearable.

No you're not mistaken, it is junk.

 

Ok I will probably end up going with the Skunk2s or GCs i want it to be good and kinda soft for daily driving plus good for race when i need it. Im rolling on stock rims right now but gonna get my rims after my exhaust comes in

skunk2's = stiff as hell......

OTS GC's = good on OEM shocks, but not good for autox or road racing

what kinda shocks are u getting???

 

wasnt planning on getting any right now...

 

Just stick with some good ol springs

 

My buddy in college has a 98 accord and told me springs is the best way to go for suspensions for accords. He also said coilovers can get kinda noisy . I wouldn't really know cuz my car is stock too and im planning on gettin it lowered as well. Then my buddy just outta the blue told me that. So i dunno, i can be mistaken though.

 

where are you getting this info????? a company that sells springs mounted on perches for 150 bucks isnt gonna be seling quality stuff. i can think of problems other than ride quality that can arise from cheap parts. first of all, the perches could crack and you could be screwed. second of all is the aformentioned shitty ride quality. get skunk2 or GC, you will be happier with them, oh btw, my car isnt lowered at all.

 

i just went to their site.... http://www.arospeed.com but yes i know not to get them now..
