Actually where i work sell them. they are made by a company call "Bomz racing"
Quality are pretty good for what it is, good for daily drive but don`t worth for *%&^ when it comes to performace. Spring rate are like 400F 500R liner, you will need some really good shocks to work with them.

I would think it would be the other way around. That it would suck for daily driving but okay if your hobby is SOME track every once in a while. That's bad if our hood struts cost more than those coilovers.

I woulnd't recommend coil over "sleeve kits"... they are not as strong, I remember when Skunks came out the first year with Sleeve Kits, after awhile, they would crack ( the sleeve).. I recommend full Coil over kits( 1-piece units).

But then again, like someone mentionned, you pay for what you get..
