Default Buying used coilovers?

So I found these H&R 29928-1 (I think thats what the model is) coilovers on kijiji and I bargained down to 180CAD (136 USD)

Do you guys think they are worth it or in a too bad shape?

I never buy used suspension parts unless they were on the car as test fitment.

I wouldn’t, judging by the rust on the threads looks like you’ll have a fun time adjusting the height on them. And when you do adjust looks like they ain’t going low at all

H&R coilovers don't really go low. I installed a set in someone's 99/00 SI coupe long time ago and it looked basically the same height afterwards. LOL
