I was just wondering if anyone used this set up and your experience with it.I've saw a few threads about the omni sleeves being fairly stiff,which is what I am looking for.The suspension is going on my DD and while I love the stock ride,I don't like the stock look.I have illuminas already for my hatch and I like them.Just more curious about omni slipovers I guess you could say.Thank you for your time.
if you love the stock ride, you wont like omni sleeve springs. theyre way too effing stiff for any good.
illuminas are great. theyll work, but theres only so stiff you want to go on the street for a good ride and diminishing returns in handling.
i would consider a proper spring kit like eibach pro kits.

Thanks for the input.I don't want to put springs because I want to be able to adjust the height when I want to.I just feel in love with how well the stock ride is,but I'm not a big fan of how it looks stock.I guess you could say handling is not that important because it will be on my all stock single cam coupe.Maybe it would be better to just save up my money and get a full coilover set up.All of my friends with full coilover set ups are happy,and it seems that's the way to go.I was just trying to achieve a nice lowered,non bouncy ride without paying $1k+.Looks like the best thing to do is not be cheap,do it right and ill get the ride I want...hopefully.
a set of neuspeed race, or eibach sport springs will drop you well below the suspension should be if you want to be lowered. theres so many options out there for springs to match any ride height. i dont see a reason for you to get anything else.
you should consider that most ppl who get adjustable springs, really never adjust them. "i want to raise it up for winter" blah blah. never do. and also consider that everytime you change ride heights, you should get an alignment because your toe will change and misaligned toe will kill your tires.

I think the best thing to do is to just be patient and save up for a full coilover set up.I want to be able to higher or lower the car when I want.Thanks for the input guys.I appriciate it.
