    i got no real facts saying they suck........ but I'd always think that you get what you paid for.......

    they maybe just springs... with no specific spring rates... badly constructed that may deform over time........


    but if you endup trying it, please let me know how they are, I was thinking of trying them too...but don't want to screw up my car...

    COILOVERS ON EBAY......?'s

    i'm researching prices and brands to lower my car and i came upon this on ebay. i thought that coilovers are generally more expensice than springs... but i found this one auction on ebay

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...7966403181&rd=1

    it says it's compatible with the stock shocks, but why is it so cheap?
    any1 have any input?

    It's the TRD spoiler. You can only find it on eBay or the forum for sale sections now-a-days.

    honestly... if you get those 40 dollars for a set coilovers...

    will you fell safe when you know you are only riding 10 dollars of springs per wheel going down the highway at 100+km/hr?? I guess if it were a pure show car, then its ok, but if you want even a bit of performance on it... you aint' gonna get any.

    on top of that, you can compress the springs by hand.

    ...BY HAND. do you really want that "supporting" you? i honestly hope you say no...
