cant justify really i have just heard that they are really bad for your stock shocks. also heard that if you lower them enough it will blow shock faster? true?

its always a good idea to buy after market shocks if you get any type of lowering springs, or slip overs.

just another word for adjustable springs.

For any type of slipover setup, you always want to get a good set of struts..

example a popular setup is Ground Control with Koni Yellow struts

tokico are good for anybody on a budget, but be prepared for a stiff ride. Im not really sure they make blues for dc5's but you can check ep3 threads to see if they make them for that chassis.

Dont quote me on this but, you may be able to match ep3 struts to dc5s.

This is so true. Mine went about 2 months after i put them on haha. You better get some koni's or something if you do get them, because its really not fun driving down the highway trying to keep your head from bouncing up and down.

they're called coilover sleeves, not slipovers
