bomz lowering springs......?

Post by BornSticky »

Has anyone actually bought these? I don't think I ever would but maybe if there was enough good remarks I would think more about it... I know it would be better to spend the extra 50 bucks for some drop zones.... they probably have a much better spring rate and don't wear out in 50 km. I guess I was just curious....

One of my MX-3's had DropZone coilovers on it when I got it. They were the worst imaginable crap. If these are $50 less than DropZone...I can't even imagine.

$50 for a set of 4 brand new coilovers? How is that any different from the $30 electric turbo or the $15 "chip"?

I'm not tryin' to rag on you man, but you really do get what you pay for. Especially with suspension.

Yeah... you've gotta kind of use your common sense here. $50 for a major component such as your suspension? That screams disappointment to me...

Suspension is one of the few instances where you actually get what you pay for.
