Default Omni power coilveover kit

Just seeing what u guys think, i found some omni power "coilover kit" http://www.omnipowerusa.com/Pr...r.asp
for about $160. At the moment im looking for some decent (cheap) coilovers and just wondering the reviews on these. I searched and just found topics on their "full coilover sus." Are these good? I mean ive seenused ground controls and skunk2's for about $160, so im really leaning toward these mainly cause of the price Or should i just stick with GC or Skunk2

/ ....?

I got the omni sleeves. I think for cheap coilovers, they're pretty good. But I'm not doing any kind of racing on these. I just wanted to lower my car a little bit, and not get the uneven lean that can happen with just springs.

I'm using them with AGXs and I'm only lowered about an inch and a half. With the AGXs on 2's all the way around, the set up passes the wife test.

nobody knows where the springs come from. At least with GC's you know that they are using high quality springs (ERS). A set of good springs (ERS, etc) would cost about $200-260 for the springs alone. If you just want a good street setup buy Eibach pro-kit or sportline springs.

the springs are made by and unkown manufacturer, and go with something made buy Eibach. like ground controls. its worth the money in the long run, and just save up for them or get some used ones they are just as good as new ones

For sleeves, you can't go wrong with GC. But if you intend to shell out for full coilovers eventually, then I say don't bother with sleeves at all.

If I were you; Unless your springs are no good, ride on what you have and wait for full coilovers.
Sleeves are a pain in the ***, especially if you're going to drop your car and expect to have the same ride.
