Default Nex Coilovers Quality or Crap?

Hey there just wondering if anyone has experience with these coilovers, they are priced affordable at around 635. The spring rates on the shocks seem to be pretty good at 8 kg/200mm in the front and 6kg/200mm in the rear. They are only ride height adjustable not dampening, and from the company website "NEX Type SS kit has all the features of a racing coilover without the harsh ride and cost. The NEX Type SS is designed to allow the vehicle to be lowered without affecting shock stroke or spring preload. This is done by seperating the spring preload adjustment from the ride height adjustment. This is only found on a few kits!!! Adjustment range is from 1.5"-3.5".

I am currently running Koni shocks on neuspeed race springs, and I hate the ride its just way to bouncy for my liking, and yea i know the neuspeeds have got a high spring rate but even so I would say my car drove better on stock shocks and struts with the neuspeeds then the Konis. Simply put I like the aggresive drops, but want something that isnt so ******* bouncy.
