you get what you pay for, end of story. that being said, he has good feedback, but has only sold 10 sets of them. it really depends on what you do with the car. if you just dd it, they would probably be fine, light track use or auto-x, I'd go with tokico or bilstein, something you know is good quality! if you decide to get them, post up what you think!

they are probably rated for oem replacement. meaning you shouldnt pair them with any kind of lowering springs as they could easily ruin or blow the shocks.

that is a really good point. replacement shocks arent made to be lower than stock height, making them prone to blow, and just give bad ride quality because they are always bottomed out.

lol. finding good brand used sets that are known to be good for cheap are "diamond in a rough". finding new sets that are just plain cheap, well are just plain cheap. good luck with what ever route you pick.

No name brands, the worst. Go with reputable known to perform brands.
