so today i finally ordered my first set of coils
im not an autox'er or hardcore racer i just want to replace my old worn out shocks/struts with something new and lower the car at the same time..
i ordered the cheapest setup i could find i dunno if the seller is a sponsor but its ECS tuning and the coilovers are the Streetline brand which has some pretty decent reviews online nothing negative that i saw...
for less than 450$ i lets see what they ride like..
ill post pics when they show up and during install this weekend depending on when they show up

They arr FK streetlines. I had them, they are ok, just bouncy was my only drawback to them

I don't understand why people order such cheap coilovers. They will make your car ride like shit.

$450 for coilovers? That is half the cost of a damper for one corner of my car. That is what my camber plates cost.

It is literally impossible to manufacture a good suspension for $450. The suspension is the most important part of your car. At least get KW V1 or something.

i was in a gm car for the past 6-7 years lol i dont think ill be worried about suspension feeling like crap..
on my previous transam i had the cheapest suspension products available never went with $500 adjustable lower control arms when the $100 c.a. do the same thing...
im not going to be throwing the car in the leman 24 anytime soon
