I am selling some coil-overs for $65 shipped. They are just generic ones but perform very well. They have 4 inch springs, 500lb for the front and 400lb out back. They are to be used with shocks that have perches(stock,kyb,tokico,koni). I used them for about 6 months, and liked them much better then my skunks... Let me know

If you care about handling, get Ground Control or JIC. If you can't afford them, Skunk2 makes a high quailty product for around $200.

$200?? I believe they are closer to $300. Don't go with the cheap stuff. Skunk2's are comparable to Ground Controls. I have heard that JIC's are really good too, but I don't know much about them.

Holy crap... Skunk2's are $300? Anyone know of a better deal? I'm looking to replace my old $120 AroSpeeds.

I liked maxspeeds more then my skunk2s. Maxspeeds seemed stiffer but I don't know either of their spring rates. Some Teins have been known to rust and JIC is the shit if you have the money.

I still say that the best budget coilovers are maxspeeds by far.

Oh yeah my skunk2's were actually skunkworks, but I guess are the exact same thing but skunkworks had to change their name for business reasons. The name changed and coilovers didn't so I hear.
