I paid $200 to charity and all I got was this stupid title... oh, and I'm probably out to sea right now too.

And I thought my Helix coilovers were the cheapest on i-club!!!

$429 seems awful cheap for a set of coilovers. Have you done any research on their quality? You might want to hit up some local shops for an opinion.

You pay for what you get, at that price they are most likely crap!

Before everyone starts telling me how dumb i was for buying these...

Yes, I did actually do some research. They may not be great for your WRX or STi but for my year wagon and similar, they arent bad for the money. They have good ride for DD and still stiff enough for weekend drives.

Besides, I was gonna spend $300 on lowering springs anyway, I figured I might as give these a shot since a few guys have had some good things to say about them.

Besides, anything is an upgrade from my stock wagon springs and struts with 150,000 miles on them...

I know quite a few Miata owners that made this mistake by going to Racelands. You get what you pay for. Good luck.
