I had some Dropzone sleeve coilovers on my 95 Integra GSR sedan, it rode nicely. Not bouncy at all, nice ride all around.

I wouldn't recommend them. The majority of the responses you get will most likely steer you away from them and tell you go for something better.

I don't thing anyone would describe Dropzones as "riding nicely" they are hard and bouncy, seems they use exactly the same spring for front and rear and as the shocks may be good quality, they lean more to racing suspension needs than road usage unless you like bouncy hard shocks. I have a 1970 mini cooper and it rides just like that, and they have rubber cones for springs. i wouldn't recomend them for everyday use at all, but then thay do advertize them as "racing" . The quality is fine for the price, but you get what you pay for, and for $250 for 4 shocks and coilovers, that's just what you get.

Heh, I had them and seriously, they did NOT bounce around everywhere. Anyone could say they suck and all, but I'll stick by my set. They were great for the price.
