When I was thinking about getting them I wanted a little more performance so he steered me away from them but he said he was able to drop his about 2.5" and still had a soft ride. He did point out the rear kit is pretty worthless and put in his old lowering springs in the rear but he's been pretty happy with the results of the look and the ride. He's in the same boat, weekend car that doesn't get ran very hard. You will have to buy their CC plates as no one else's will work with them. That's how I ended up with his MM plates.

Yeah i'm looking into that theory already, I heard that the perch mount can be modified. but won't know til i get into everything.

"Wanna be coilover" LOL


Sad but true. You could literally go buy 2 adjustable top mount perches and use H&R springs and you'll get more adjustability than this kit.

In the rear, about 75% of the time my tires are rubbing, yes. The front's are clearanced due to my camber so those have no issue but I'm not too fond of the look.

Im curious because Im in the market and these are very cheap. I doubt they are any good but who knows?

Hey I'm in a similar boat and checking out MM now and I'd be looking to spend for the kit and struts somewhere in neighborhood of around $1050 for the coil over kit, the Bilstien HD struts, and the caster camber plates.

So yes I need info on these as well. Car will be a weekend street driver with a 400 cubic inch motor. I will play around sometime but for the most part my car is babied a good bit too :) With that new motor I will play around more than I did with the 302 though.

If these will work for me I'd probably give them a shot but I certainly aren't about to buy them, not like, then sell or try and sell, and do it all over getting the MM's. But that is a huge savings..........

Here's a close up so you can see the camber.
