Coilovers

Post by sol-lude » Wed Apr 05, 2017 12:58 pm

Guys,

seen these on Ebay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Full-Set-New- ... Sw2xRYSmS3

Seem to be on the cheap side but half the price of decent sets on ebay, anyone seen or have these?

There is a set of lowering springs and aftermarket shocks on the 4g breaker i have - they might be worth a look ;)
Ive not had a chance to check them out at them as yet but can get some pics later this week if you like :)

Id be open to looking at these im not after coilovers specifically infact id rather some sport shocks and springs, if its possible to check the state of the shock rebound too that would be awesome :)
