Default Those with Omni Power Street or Sport coilovers...

Hey guys, noob here just wondering what are your thoughts on Omni coilovers on your Accords. I have searched this entire site and it seems there is alot of mixed reviews (civic and integra forum), some saying it's they are great , while others saying they are ****..... I am confused as hell Do you guys recommend them?
Thanks

Just to add a little more info.

The shock is a short stroke damper that is valved to match the spring rate you chose, it is not adjustable, but it corresponds well with the spring. On a good road, the ride is very smooth, but on a bumpy road, imperfects can be felt easily. Ride quality is maintained through a number of different heights. I'm lowered 3+" and get no major complaints from passengers (i love a stiff ride, but not everyone does). On the subject of height adjustably, you have more than enough room to be "slammed", and also enough if you should ever need to raise the car higher than normal(winter etc.).

Overall, they are most definitely worth the price, and i reccomend them to anyone looking for a quality and performance, without spending $1000 plus.

YES. The upper "a-arm" will hit the inside of the fender if you are too low. I ground a few inches off mine, and it has plenty of clearance now. If you don't do this, and allow it to constantly come in contact with the fender, the balljoint could serperate from the control arm. Needless to say, this is not something you want to happen.
