my opinion.....

1st off, i wouldn't buy any no name coil overs, the ride sucks!!

Now, as far as regular lowering coils go, Drop Zone (for being a cheap no name brand) actually make a pretty decent spring. Years ago, i had a supplier offer me a set for my RSX to try them out. I installed a set on my brand new at the time, 2002 RSX, which dropped the car 2 inches. I still have them on today, the car rides and handles amazing. Seven years later, i'd say that's pretty good.
I constantly have people who ride in my car commenting on how good my lowered car rides. that says a lot.

why would you put your kids in a car that has cheap springs that are acting like such? i mean im sure you have heard stories about that kinda spring and if you say its bouncing like hell and you are THINKING something COULD snap? thats a little cause for concern...

i have some and i have to say they are really bouncy, especially in the rear. living in the sticks doesnt help either, with the condition of the roads out here.

the shocks are a good deal, but go with Eibach or some other reputable company for the springs.
