They're on speedpeople.com. Price: 129.95, any opinions on these? I'm probably gonna get ground control coil overs, but someone showed me these and so I wanted to get some opinions.. thanks.

If they are 130 bucks they can't be very good. All of the coilovers in that price range are horrible. So I don't think these are any different. I would get ground controls.

I figured, but a guy I talk to said he rode in a car with them and they felt like his skunk 2's so I hadda ask. I'll stick with the gc.

If you are going to get coilover sleeves, don't skimp on them. It just increases the risk of problems from the sleeves...

The reason they feel like the skunk2's is because they are both stiff as hell. The spring rates are very high to have a comfortable ride.
