Depends on what you want, to be lower then fine. But if you want a great ride and handling you'll need to spend more.

They are not as bouncy as the dampers are matched to the springs. They should last longer than standard dampers and lowering springs as well for the same reason.

I've run them on my old car and new. So al in all about 5years and I brought off a friend who had them for 2years. So 7 years and still going strong.. Had absolutely no problems. But yea the ride ain't great but it's a lowered car.. The ride isn't ever guna be perfect!

i have these and rides better than standard. nice on smooth roads little harsh on anything else n lil bouncy tho as i was told the lowering springs were 60m n was told to chop front bumpstops. found out that theyre only 40mm so will need new bumps. hopefully should make the ride better

Ran these for a year or so & had no problem's, ride wasn't any were as near as bad as people were saying either, if your going down 60mm you definatly need to match the spring's with there shock's as the shock's piston's are shorter so wont bottom out & also stiffer to this reduces bounce from the shock. For a budget set up there ideal & sit nice & low to
