Is this a deal?

My friend wants to sell me an Eibach 1.5 lowering spring kit plus matching Kyb adjustable shocks all for $250. The kicker is that they've been used for 15K miles. Is this worth thinking about?

hmmm not that bad, tell em 200 and see what he says. 250 for the whole package isn't too bad though. As long as the shocks aren't blown.

I'm just not feeling the fact that they're used for 15K. I'm currently asking about why they're being sold in the first place.

It's worth it, for less money, I'd only pay $175-200

Pro-Kit? Don't waste your money - they're garbage. I had them, they don't lower the front at all, and the springs clap which makes a terrible noise.

Because it's not designed for the car, so it doesn't fit properly. However, it's going to be custom molded. And yes, they came off of Percy's car - but that isn't Percy's car.
