somewhat.. imo depends how low you go. i slam my car so that ebay stuff will just break my axels and bang my car agaisnt the floor when im on the freeway. im sure for cars that are higher there wont be as many problems.

they look like maxspeed coilover.
the first set i ever had, i matched them up w/ tokico blues.
they worked good, cant say anything bad about them.
not the greatest,but,for the money. $150.i think, cant remember.

you'll have problems if you lower you car real low with cheap coilovers .. but if its just lets say 1.5 drop then it wont be too bad..

if your stuck with not so great coilovers just dont lower it low and you will be okay.. wont be the best ride and wont look the greatest but if u put it too low it will bang your car on the freeway

better shocks will help but to be honest dont expect alot.. try it somewhat high and see how it feels b4 u slam it.. everyone now adays is jdm this and that but its getting a bit played out. its ur car so get whatever you want but like i said i dont recommend slamming it the ride isnt going to be that stable.

don't go cheap on suspension, ur whole car relies on it, if u don't have the money, just get decent skunk2 or ground controls on some tokico or something
