They're just ****ty generic eBay sleeve over springs and they will definitely blow your struts.

Do you have Tein coilovers or Tein springs?

DNA coilovers are fail. They'll destroy your struts. And every bump will feel like you're hitting a curb.

CustomMaxima always has been.

They re-list eBay stuff at jacked up prices, and call it their own.

Not trying to hate on any of our sponsors, but they could do better.

That's just another generic eBay item. I got that same catback off eBay for $175.

Ive been thinking about getting these and pairing them with some adj (illumina/agx) or maybe even staggs and selling of my rare Boss Chens. If not, what are other alternative for coilover springs other than ground controls? Not saying they suck, just pricey. Want to put the $ I make off selling the Boss Chens to another mod....

I've never bought anything from Custom Maxima but from what I hear it seems like their business model will be their downfall.

You can fool people for a while but you can't fool them forever.

I mean if they were less greedy and actually cared more about the people they sponsor, they could have had maybe worked deals with Ebay vendors to get a discounted price and sell them back to us at a price that is lower than what is offered on Ebay but a bit higher than what they bought it for. Then, be straight up and instead of claiming things to be their own, say that it was a group deal offered from Ebay vendors to Custom Maxima customers.

If you want a fully height suspension save your money to get full coilovers instead of cheap eBay crap. Don't waste your money on this, trust me...

I wanted to, but as soon as I semi-gauged interest, Ive been hit with countless texts about them from 100% buyers. I wont really need them anymore since Im about to get a lip kit soon and will have to raise it anyways. Im considering a trade for Ksport springs/adj struts+cash or Coilover springs/adj struts+cash.
