The people who are bashing their coilovers are probably dumped on a shitty or stock strut.

My car rides really well for having 144,000 mile stock struts on it with Skunk2 sleeve over coilovers.

Most of the time idiots in this area have their suspension setup incorrectly anyways.

K-Sports and Omni's you can adjust from the base, I'm sure others do the same but those are the only two that come to mind.

You said it not me.

IMO, the agx struts suck. I've have two sets, both of which blew after owning for 2 years. Every car I've worked on has had leaky struts too when they had the AGX up there. Maybe we were too low or something.

My Si is currently on Skunk2 coilovers and I have a 1.5 finger gap all around. Rides like cake, not nearly ass good as stock but it rides extremely well.

Soon Ima need something ALOT stiffer because it squats so bad.

For a cheap setup, GC coilovers with koni yellows is amazing, best bang for the buck

The full Pro-c setup is good.

i have them on my crx right now and they are pretty good.

Ofcourse, with any aftermarket suspension setup you are going to feel the bumps.

Overall they are 7.5 out of 10 for the way they ride.

for full coilovers they are good. 1 1/2 finger gap all the way around.
