Default DropZone shocks info..........

Does anyone have any info on the Dropzone shocks. Looking to get a set for my DB8 JDM Integra. I will either go with the full setup from Dropzone (shocks and lowering springs/coilovers). Also which do you guys recommend for a daily driver, lowering spring or coilovers. The roads where I live are the worst in the world so I need something to take the bumps plus look good with 15" rays wheels. Plus the price is better than the others............

Hmmm JDM Integra with Rays wheels and you're asking about Dropzone?

Think of this, they have been out for a while but are not widely used and not the most popular brand. See the correlation?

For the money you would spend on those, you could buy something worthwhile instead.

If you match them with some relatively low spring rates they will be alright....id say anything over 325 spring rate will be too much. They are made for lowered cars. They have a shortened piston/stroke and a 30mm cylinder. Most bad reviews about them are from people that never used them or from people that run really high spring rates with them which they were not meant to do. The dropzone springs and coilovers are too high of a spring rate for their shocks imo and the sleeves arent very good quality but if you get some low spring rates from ground control or lowering springs they will dampen and last for quite some time
