If he already has Cattman's, then the JIC Magics would be like a downgrade. Fewer features, less adjustability, no over the shock tower mounting.
And RickChan, all coilovers squeak a little.

I've never heard of the KEI Office coilovers. I would suggest you get the JIC MAGIC coilovers. I've heard good things about them and they look like good quality.

I've had my Cattman's for about 1 year now and have already suffered a broken strut mount, moving sleeves, and a broken strut piston. They are not well constructed and lack certain features that are needed such as shorter strut bodies, heavy duty strut mounts, non-sagging springs (with more spacing between the coils up front), bumpstops, and vehicle specific spring rates. I believe he's making the right decision by upgrading to better quality as opposed to features.
