Default ebay coilovers

I found some coilovers on ebay. I was wondering what you guys thought about it. I know you get what you pay for. Anybody think that they will hold up? I'm just kinda scared to buy something that might come apart in some way.

when you can get a full set of coilovers shipped to your door for $50 that's a pretty big red flag in my book.

I just wanted some new springs. I just wanted some coilovers to higher it at times. How much does a decent set cost?

To be honest i wouldnt mess with skunk2 .. i've heard some bad stories bout them.. Tiens are good but i'd go with coilovers because they're adjustable.. check out ground control coilovers

ebay springs are made poorly but Ive have some cheap coilovers and put it on decent shocks like tokico illuminas they rode pretty good. I like them better than ots ground control cause my ground control were too soft

i dont do ebay at all. shop from a reputable source and remember on ebay, just cause they say the namebrand, doesnt mean they are namebrand. the ones in your links seem to be legit though.

what are you wanting to do with them anyway? auto-x or just for looks?

well personally if ur planning on getting that tokico suspension the tokico blue shocks aren't the greatest shocks and those springs are real soft in my opinion i would honestly reccomend h&r springs either the sports or race it just depends on how low you want to go.
