At first I was disappointed but I am starting to like them. I have my tokico's set to 5 all the way around and my ride is pretty nice. I would have gone with GC's but the place I order from doens't carry them and I got such a good deal on the skunks.

They're not shitty quality, I know a few people that run on them with no complaints. The reason I brought up GC is because I personally would rather have a spring made by Eibach and with GC you can order different spring rates. With skunk2 you can only get the spring that comes with the kit. I heard you can fit an Eibach spring on the skunk2 sleeves though. Depending on how low you go will justify whether or not you need a camber kit. Anything over a 1.5"-2" drop needs camber correction I believe.

They come in a sets, 1 set being for either front or rear so you will need 2 kits.

You will need to buy a front set and a rear set. Each set comes with right and left wheel kits.
