Hi folks.
I was wondering if anyone has used the coilovers thats on sale on eBay.
It is around $25 bucks, and was wondering if it can hold the weight of the car(2.5 model) better than the ground control coilover springs.

 

Oh and also,
would the 1999-2003 coilover springs fit the 1995-98 2.5 TL?

 

um...if u go with those coilovers.....ur ride will be EXTREMELY BOUNCY....those coilovers are more for looks than they are performance....but i don't think ud even be able to drive the car without bouncing all over the place

 

i was searching for suspensions on ebay and i would not risk my car on cheap coilovers like that.. if u really want to lower your car... do it right and spend the money... if i do it, eibach all the way...

 

Think about doing 80 down the highway when your spring(s) go(es). Not a pretty sight.

 

the coilovers arn't going to bust on you....maybe they have the potential to break easier than Teins or Eibachs....but there are inspections and such that prevent shitty products from being made...they won't snap on you....but they will not give u a good ride...they will actually bounce all over the place

 

I Got coilovers.... the ride ain't that great.. You may want to look into Megan racing... I think that's the name of the company but they make a true coilover for the accords and it may fit our cars...

 

You probably should even look at Skunk, before you buy a 25$ coilover does k-mart make it?

 

well any type of sleeve coilover is going to give you a shittier ride.... if you wanna nice drop with a decent ride go with something like TEIN lux-Tech or a sportline kit paired with some decent shocks

 

True, but the shocks can bust if the spring doesn't hold the car well enough. That would suck.

 

yeah that's your main concern there..... the coils will last it's jus that the shock will bottom out a whole lot more.... and then you will have good coils with blown shocks

 

I bought some cheap coilovers like these from a local shop a few years back, and they rode fine when I had my KYB adjustable shocks with them. I could adjust the shock stiffer or softer based off ride height and they rode better than my friends who had the high dollar stuff.

 

daniel, post up pictures of your z. Last I heard, your kit was already ordered will be installed. Update us.

 

Im starting to part out the Z because I dont ever get to drive it. I have had it for 2 years and put 6k miles on it.
Heres an old pic, not much has changed.

 

I am currently using ground control with Tokico Illumina struts for about a year now. I like them but I want better ones.

I am currently looking into Tein suspensions.
Anyone have them? How are they when compared to Tokico,KyB,Koni,ect?

 

what are the offsets on those wheels?

 

I cant remember but I think 35 and 38 or 40
19x8 front and 19x10 rear
