From the looks of these would i just need top hats? Just wanna make sure before I buy them.

 

is that stock? i want it, lol and yes thats what it looks like they need

 

they guy said they are kyb struts with ground control springs

 

yup.... Probably can use your stock ones.... Those fronts ( two on the right) look like they are gonna be stiff as hell. No progression. Thats gonna be a bumpy ride ... or they have them on the wrong strut...?.. Those struts are bone stock. And those springs are rusted.... I wouldnt ...

 

top hats and your done lol

 

so you think i shouldnt get them then?

 

It's kinda fishy that he painted them. See if you can scrape off a little bit and confirm the silver color of KYB struts and red ground control springs. The front springs do look kinda tall for lowering springs

 

ok i honestly prolly wont even bother. I kind of thought the samething because i thought the springs were supposed to be red.

 

As far as I know GC is only coilovers. NOT normall springs. IF they were GC's they'd be a lot shorter springs.


Those look stock, I honestly would pass, your going to get ripped off...

 

Listen to this man.

 

Run away!

 

Definitely not ground control springs.

Could be kyb shocks, but probably gr2's which are oem replacement ones.

 

yup... Plus all you need are kyb or koni struts and some good springs..... No need to have coilovers unless its a track car. Never understood that. Mine is lowered and corners hard and no coilovers . Just good springs and struts. No teeth rattiling lol

 

I didnt buy them but they were only going to be on my car for like a month or two. I just bought an ek hatch and all the struts are blown lol. He only wanted 100 bucks.

 

I can't make out the label on the struts but they look like Drop Zones and stock springs..

 

Definitely not KYB AGX shocks or Ground-Control. They might be KYB GR2s and painted black but I kind of doubt it. Ground-Control sells coilover sleeves that use Eibach springs which are designed to be used only with sleeves. In other words, they don't look like the springs you have there.

It's a risky buy, who knows if they are even blown or not and how those springs will work on your car(ie: drop and ride quality).
