yeah thats true... is it really worth the money if i get the more expensive ones? i dont really care about the ride and how it feels. my friends dad has a shop and im ordering them through him. hes tryin to sell me some rediculously expnsive coilovers.

the only true coilovers are going to be expensive. DO NOT get the so called "coilover inserts" They are aweful and will do more harm than good. Your other option is to just get a set of lowering springs and struts which will be cheaper. But for good coilovers plan on spending at least $700
