Anyone admit they own a set?
Are these as good as the name brands or is quality sacrificed(are you just buying the name, ex. ground control)?
I would just like to avoid spending alot of money

thanks-

 

remember the saying you get what you pay for....

i doubt you can get "racing" quality for 39.95


just my 2 cents.....

 

You pay for quality. That's absolute horseshit when it comes to quality.

 

are you basing this off experiance/someone whos dealt with them or are you just using the less money= **** equation?

not trying to be a smartass but id really like to hear from someone whos had a set or knows someone who did/does

 

I have arospeed coilovers on stock struts. They've done the job for the last two years

 

don't go cheap on suspension

I'll be honest with you, I'm basing my opinion on less money=****. I know this is not always true but in this case I think $40 for coilovers = ****.

One of the ways they are able to sell these coilovers for a cheap price is reduced costs. This leads me to believe that they use inferior raw materials or a less extensive construction process, compared to higher quality manufacturers. Because of this, these coilovers won't be able to hold up to the rigors of the road as long as high quality ones would.

Sorry, I haven't had any experience with these exact coilovers so you can't take my opinion into accout fully. I could be totally wrong.

Good luck.

 

I think its also the typical ebay scam.....really high shipping to make a lower price.........

 

$80 bucks. might as well find a used set of ground control for a little more.

 

You really should stay away from those. My neighbor was trying to emulate my hatchback ( ground controls) because he likes the fact that it was lower and you could adjust the height.. so to make a long story short the threaded collars on his car stripped down and bottomed out his car on the fwy. car was totaled!!
