They served me good for 5+ years, better than bouncy *** coil overs.

they're alright. i've had them on my 98 civic coupe for about two years and haven't had any problems. it all depends on what you want. if you want your car running on rails, dont bother with springs.

Assuming your putting them on a civic, they should ride smooth. A bit better than stock but perform a hell of alot better

I have used them in three cars before (Civic, Integra. CRX) with no problems, good springs for the price.

Yes, good ride. As long as they're not Sprint Extremes.

Had Sprint springs on my CRX for over 3 years and they rode great. Not a huge drop but the ride comfort is good.

Had 'em on my 98 DX. I think they were about a 2" drop or so. Little bouncier than stock but not terrible. Gave the car a better looking stance and didn't make the car unbearable to drive 40+ miles a day to and from work.
