coilover question
I'm hitting almost 75,000 miles and I need new struts, has anyone ever bought coilovers from eBay? I was looking the other day and found these. Any info is appreciated http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item...d=291354659141

I don't do a lot of racing so I think the streets would be ok for me but I only looked at these because of the price, it's hard putting out over 1000 for suspension |

Yeah parts arnt cheap. My Pedders supercars were alot and got a deal on them, and most top line units today are in the 2000 range and those arent the most costly ones like DSE triple adjustables.

if your already spending 900 you may as well do 1000 and get some LG motorsports G5 coilovers. I have them and they handle like a champ

I installed the BC coilovers a couple of weeks ago and I can say that I am happy with them so far!

Ditto on Dblock5's post - just bought some BC Racing Coilovers (BR Type) from forum member Rob@WretchedMS, installed them the next week, and tracked this past weekend, they seemed to handle very well - and they're a MUCH better ride over OEM (or so I imagine?)

I have driven on BC racing and currently have the LG motorsports. If I were to buy again in that price range, I would buy the BC racing hands down to get some adjustability.
