IMO save for koni/GC combo... it's the best bang for the buck... IMO it's actually BETTER than the higher dollar setups.

I've heard plenty of people complaining about their coilover setups from various companies... but I've never heard of anyone being dis-appointed in the GC/Koni's...

I was VERY skeptical when I ordered mine and I couldn't be happier.

Nah, that setup is too soft, at least for my liking. Whatever you do, do go with that cheap eBay crap.

yes. springs and coil overs usually squeak and bounce. they'll give you a lower look, but you'll hate the ride.
