          Fronts go really low but the rears don't go low enough

            I've owned a car with them before. It's a pile of crap. The dampening is worse than OEM good shocks. Fronts slam pretty low but the rears don't. IMO it handled much worse than when it was stock.

            If you just want cheap low, go cosmos. If you want good, go GC. I never recommend these.

            Status: HG repair. 488wtq though!

                Have them on my vert. It is very rarely driven, but when it is, I enjoy their ride. Not track worthy. But comfy to scoot around low.

                  I like mine on my vert, however, my car is getting something stiffer.

                      Look up the JOM FS thread. It's got a load of useful information in it. I believe it's in the Group Buy thread. The fronts are perfect with plenty of adjustability. The rears bind. Pick up a set of GC rears and if you can, the threaded collars as GC springs WILL NOT work with the JOM adjuster. That said, I'd buy another set again.
                      Need a part? PM me.

                        How ruff is the ride though.. I hear some say it's only good for slammed dd .. I just want to tuck some tires.. And was looking for a cheaper alternative then bc

                            Typing JOM in the search resulted in finding the main thread about them, you obviously did not search.

                              Even a Google of JOM will find that thread easy.

                              I'd rathet waste my time letting you know what a lazy sack you are than do the work for you or remain silent.
