are these any good, since the price is kinda low, or would lowering springs with new shocks be better, if so which ones. dont want to spend more than 700 if i can help it

I know next to nothing about coilovers, but i have read the how tos and searched quite a bit. My big thing is ride quality. I want the low look without sacrifing ride quality if I can help it. I know it will affect it, but im trying to also make sure that these coilovers last longer and ride better than just using the old fashion spring lowering.
My main vehicle is a lifted truck but the wifey wants me to make her car look better
thanks btw

go to turboneonstore.com and look in the neonsrt4 section and there are a set of coilovers called meganracing coils for 895$ that is the best coilover for the price. IMO other people will chime in but they are good quality the are dampening adjustable and you can get camber plates for them which are much easier then camber bolts.. how much are you looking to spend? because there are some strut spring combos that are less expensive that will last a verylong time and the ride quality will be pretty close to stock. So yeah how much are you looking to spend and how low are you trying to go? these will help us answer your questions better and get you the right setup

im only wanting to go 1.5 to 2 inches. 895 would defnitely be my upper limit. if i can save 3 to 400 dollars for an almost stock ride that will last i would rather go that route though, let me know thanks

get the GT NEXs and camber bolts. I love my SS NEXs but i wish i had dampening adjustment. Also you might need to adjust your front camber a little bit thus the camber bolts. The rear has adjustable camber so you are set there. the GTs have a lower spring rate so they are much more streetable. You will be very happy with your new handling once u get these babies on.

i say go with tokico struts and progress springs.. springs are 170 and struts are 250. then camber bolts from progress for 80. thats 500 and it is a hell of a setup.. 1.8 inch drop and great quality that will last!
get the progress springs and camber kit from
www.progressauto.com and get the struts from moderperformance.com

1.5 drop with Mopar springs and Dropaonze Coilovers. Not quite as drastic, but it will ride nice and smooth and with a big rear sway handle like no other...
Then again, I'm really partial to oversteer and my 340 treadwear 205-50-15s mada a big difference so it really depends on the whole equation, you know?
