Im looking into lowering my car in the spring and looking at using ebay springs , does anyone on here use them ? , are they cheap ( break easy )? Should I go with brand name ones , how much more would that cost me ?

I got some cheap ebay coilovers on my CRX field hopper... they are a little bouncy but the car has 270K with from what i can tell is the factory suspension.
I'm gunna put the rear ones on my coupe cause the back is still stock ride height and the fronts slammed on eibachs

Get name brand ones. TEIN/ SKUNK2 lowering springs. remember you are what you drive, and always, you get what you pay for. you never want to pay for something twice that will not last. =]

ive been running ebay coilover sleeves on kyb agx's for almost a year no issues. worth the $40 bucks IMO.

I rocked replica Skunk2 springs for 2 years and never had any issues. The ride was awesome and handling improved!

my cheapy ebay coilovers are now on my car... they ride okay for being on such lousy shocks. with a set of kybs they will be just fine.

I have seen photos of cheapo suspension parts ripping the frame apart. This is due to bounciness.

well not everyone jumps stuff. i dont see how a "bouncy" ride can cause a chassis to "rip" apart. shouldnt believe these photos. i dont see how its possible.
