I've searched for opinions and reviews on these and I didn't come up with anything. And before you guys tell me to get GC's or whatever I just have to say that I'm on a budget due to school, housing, and bills so I gotta cut costs somewhere.

But anyways, I was wondering how the ride quality on these would be? Anyone running these on their car? And gonna be matching these up with Tokico Illuminas. I'm not gonna be using these for racing or anything, its just gonna be on my DD.

Any input on them would be great. Thanks

These are the ones I'm talking about:

 

do they suck that much that noone uses them??

yes.

 

gotta love the dime a dozen ricer spec coilovers.

 

does anyone actually have first hand experience?

 

Buy used GC's if you are on a budget.

 

good headers but bad coilovers have people actually tested them can i get a better answer besides "they suck"

 

if ur on a budget get a pair of springs instead. I mean once u get ur tires tucked or your one finger gap or whatever your seeking, your probably not gonna adjust the height. you said it yourself you're not going to be racing or ne thing. also keep in mind every change in height on your car you make will give you good cause for an alignment which i don't know about you but for me is not free (80 dollar alignment is gonna cost more than all of my utilities combined).

What do you suggest would be a good set of springs that would give me a drop with no finger gap?

i like eibachs (what i run on my dd) and i was close to getting RSR race springs last year, what i would do if i were you would be a combination of things. Pm people on here who have your chassis of car with a 1 inch drop and ask them what springs they have then go to the manufacturer's website and do a little research find out the spring rates of those springs costs etc, then search on here to see if that spring has quality issues. Search in the archives I've found so much good info in there that was posted in like 2003 or something. Don't rush your purchase if your low on cash, like me, then its even more reason to take your time and do it right. Don't buy something with quality issues just cause its cheaper, as soon as it breaks and has to be replaced it just became as expensive if not more than the premium product you could have gotten. Good springs can be found easily for under 200 way cheaper than a shitty slip on coilover.

 

good info.. i'll certainly look into all of that. thanks a lot!

 

this remind me of dropzone, but in a different package.
