12k/6k spring rates? Sounds like a cheap solution for a "slammed" street car. Also sounds rather uncomfortable for daily use (nearly 700lbs/in front rate).

Expect the dampers to blow out, the collars to "self-weld" to the adjustment rings, and to only see about 1 - 2 weeks of actual ride comfort.

Chinese manufacturer.

you get what you pay for.
people who like their setups and haven't had problems with them over a year or more usually had spent 1000$ plus.
So if you want to spend half that good luck getting half the performance and half the life span.
