Smile Raceland Coilovers for 08+ Impreza/WRX/STi?

Just wondering if anyone wants to share their good or bad experiences with Raceland coilovers? I hear they are popular among the vw crowd. For $500 I don't expect much, but has anyone here preordered them for their 08+ Impreza's?

Hm, for 500 more i'd say at least get some BC's they seem to be of higher standards. Racelands website doesn't give much specs about coilovers.

racelands for e36 bmw is pretty good. i wouldnt doubt if they are getting better but remember that their coilovers for the 08+ impreza does seem fishy. 08+ impreza and wrx share the same stuff but it doesnt mention the sti on it. I would be hesitant to preorder anything if they dont specify which type of impreza it is.

i would be super iffy on a set of coilovers that costs about half as much as the asian knock off coilovers like k2 and megan racing. i would wait for a good set of used coilovers to come up for sale and buy those

k2sports sucks to begin with they are a company that cloned the bc br's in a sub par fashion. if you want im selling a set of DGR coilovers for 08+ wrx/2.5i . they only have about 6000 miles total and have no problems/no leaks/ no creaking, and comes with a lifetime warranty through DGR including free rebuilds if they fail. the only reason im selling is because im selling my car

Emailed Raceland and they said the coilovers that are currently listed on the website are for Non-STi, so they will work for 2.5i/WRX.
