drop zone suspension package for $349?!!

Has anyone installed drop-zone struts on their max? I just saw this package on ebay and it looks too good. Thought I'd get some opinions....check it out

With suspension, you get what you pay for. That is why a complete package for $349 will most likely suck and not last long, although that's my personal opinion - most likely a valid one, too.

That is why you rarely see professional rally sport cars with suspensions under $100k.

More or less what I was thinking. I was thinking that I would just go with a HRsprings/ GR2 package from tirerack then I saw this thing on Ebay.

Custom maxima seems to have a package as well for about 500 but they are using tokico shocks and there's that whole deal with tokoco's blowing out

Back to tirerack.

i hear tockiko (sp?) illuminas are great but the blues are trash and blow out. i posted a Q about dropzones a while ago and got no response. i guess no one on the org has them or wants to admit they have em. i h8 being the guinea pig (sp?) so i passed on em. if you wanna be the 1st to try these out then more power to ya. it would be awsome if they were actually good shocks. maybe its cheap because its a new product and they want to attract some buyers or it could be cheap because it is garbage. we will only know if some one steps up and buys them

If i were you go for something that you have heard of. The MAD DROP ZONE is something that is of unknown quality. Go with something that will benefit from your money. Make your own combo of struts/springs instead of somebody making your own. AGX/ H&R are the way to go...
