I would probably agree with the previous posts as well. I currently do have R1 Coilovers with dual stage coils. I would have to say for the price, they ain't too bad. But it would probably be more worth while to buy the better ones. When using these coilovers, your car is pretty stiff when its dropped nice and low, but it gets more bouncy when the car is higher. My car has about 1.8" drop give or take and its a little more bouncy then when it was lowered further. Just my opinion, but else I'm kool with them. Just need some good shocks now.....

obviousley the ride will be shitty when you put them on stock struts, i know people and ive been in cars with those coilovers and the ride was amazing and smooth and it took bumps nicely. just my experience i had to share. i might buy those coilovers with kyb shocks. the coilovers are around $200-$250. i know a place that sells them for that price range let me know if your interested in them and ill leave you there number. but as the other said skunk 2 and ground controld are better but they are almost double the price.
