Default DropZone Suspensions... anybody heard of them?

Like most honda tuners, I'm broke as hell and need a new set of suspensions. I was browsing on E-Bay for cheap **** and i found a set of DropZone Suspensions for the 5th Gen Accord. They supposively drop 2.5inches in the front and 2.25 in the back. Is this too low for New England Driving conditions?

I have heard of the shocks being pretty decent but a buddy of mine had the springs and said they sucked..but I personally dont know from experience..i know your broke and want something right now ive been there but trust me save your money and get something good and you wont regret it...I recommend KYB AGX adjustable shocks..if your looking for coilovers ground control coilovers are good..some springs that are good are..tein, H&R, eibach...so on and so on

thanks for the tips guys. I think i still might want to try them out for myself... the price and the lifetime warrantee on these sound too good to pass up. As long as they're better than stock I'm cool with it.

These are not better than stock for sure, how the heck can these be better? only thing i can think of is that it lowers your car and thats it, even oem kyb replacements are more expensive than these so i dont see how you can say this cheap **** is better because of lifetime warranty. Even with lifetime warranty, are you willing to spend the time to take them out if it blows, ship it to them for replacement, wait like 2 weeks before you receive it. that 2.5 inch drop is not only going to scrape a **** load of stuff but its just going to cause more damage and problems for your car in the long run and their warranty is not going to pay for it.
