If you need to coils to make room for phat 18x10 inch wheels, then these will probably work. If you want your car to drive or handle better, then you will be disappointed by these. Their warranty speaks volumes.

I just need my 18x9.5 with 245/40/18 tires to fit I thought that anti sway bars would help the handling with these cheap coilovers

+1 to that, I would think cheap coilovers just have softer springs for if you get some beefy sways, your cornering should get made up for and youll have a softer ride than track. You just gotta hope that there isnt a lot of travel so you dont rub

do you guys know what about coilover and how they work? not all coilover have a high spring rates... why use a 10k spring on a RSX or S2K? ect ect i doubt they put down that much downforce to use that and the car is way to light.. all in all you get for what you pay.
