I say yay if you can find good deals on brands you can depend on (ex. tein). Nay if they are some knock off brand. Saving money on cheap parts isnt really saving money when you car f***s up a month later.

Like everyone says, getting name brand springs off Ebay is good , but the cheap @$$ brands are bad.

yea... coz my cheap uncle gave me coilover springs for christmas... and they have no name... so i guess they're from ebay. I'm not putting them on my max... shoot. It might cost me more to do repairs if the **** up my suspension. I got kyb agx and tein s-techs on my joint. So yea even i would say... NAAAYYYY!!! I'll just tell him "YEA THEY'RE ON MY MAX..." He'll never find out... haha...

I actually bought some and tried to put them on my max...These are coilovers by the way...they were $60 buks from ebay. First of all, the fronts don't fit watsoever, second the rears fit but they blew out my stock shocks, and third THEY ARE A WASTE OF MONEY!!! Now I got tein s-techs and kyb-agxs shocks.
