Default Skunk2 Suspension Opinions

I've been looking into a full skunk2 suspension kit to get my car off the ground before winter and have been hearing mixed reviews.
considering my money situation is tight to fix up this hell-hole of a car.. roughly 500 didn't seem bad for everything.

can anyone help me out with what to expect from this setup? or anything else good and reliable for about the same price?

if you want skunk2's they have them for a great price on jhpusa.com, i finished telling another guy this. i think im going to get those too. theres also koni yellows, but they run up a little more on pricing. but, w.e you do, dont get tokico blues, i had them, they suck.

i believe your talking about the PRO-S series, they are a budjet coilover...

i have had them for 6 months driving slammed on the ground and they are still holding up fine... i reccomend them for your price range.

in your price range they are good... plan on spending more money if you want adjustable dampening etc.

We just installed some Pro-C (or S, the non adjustible ones) and i must say they are great for a daily drive. They hold the car straight, not bouncy at all driving straight. Great daily suspension
