JIC Magics

I am looking at getting JICs, I can't decide whether to get FLT-A2s, or the cheaper FLT-A1USs. I heard the A2s come with camber plates up front, and pillow ball mounts in the rear, but do the A1USs come complete like that as well? PLus anyone who has JICs what would you recommend, and what are your comments? Thanks for the advice.

I have the FLT-A1's. They are good enough and you really don't need that much adjusting because you don't want to lower it and raise it that much unless you are willing to take your car to the wheel alignment shop that often.

Save money and get A1's and take the car to a good wheel alignment shop. They can adjust your camber without needing those on he A2's. A1's have the camber plates in the front anyway and my guy did not have to touch them at all to get my car aligned perfectly.

I have the A2s, I love them. If the A1s been available when I purchased mine, I would have saved some money. The bulid quality it tops. Don't forget the D2s, they seem to be the biggest fad, but a good value it would seem.

I am happy with the a2's, but I got these at a really good price. if I were to do all over again, I would have probably gotten the cheapest coilover with adjustable ride height and called it a day. they all perform the same, more or less.

thanks, i'm pretty sure i'll go with the A1s. they seem the best value cost/qulity wise. Have any of you run into any problems, or anything you particularly dislike about them?
