Has anyone used these?
I was looking at these and read on one of our forums about a couple of people buying them, the last post I saw was 2012. Has anyone had these on their gar for a while to see just how good, or bad they are?

I have a friend who just put them on his S13 and he loves them. He said the valving is very good. They ride firm like good coils do, but they're real comfortable over abrupt bumps and dips in the road. And they look damn sexy with all the different colors.

Best coils i have ever used and iv used tein.. koni.. bilstein. To be honest the fact you can pick the spring rates or upgrade to swift springs. And they can be rebuilt in house.. and easily adjustable. For the money they cant be beat

I have the Fortune Auto 500s. Had them on the car for about a year and a half. I love the adjustability and the option to upgrade to the Swift springs like dentediss stated. I have mine set about 10 clicks from soft and its comfortable for me. Here are a few pics of the car with the FAs.

It was raised slightly since the initial install but the height and ride are great for the price.

How low will these go? I'm on Megans right now, maxed out in the rear, and I still have wheel gap. I've been looking for some decent coils that go lower for a good price.

They can go lower than what I have them at now. I could probably go at least another 1/2" - 1". It just isnt very practical for me...I think the no gap is enough.

Im at about 2.5 inches ground clearance with them and a camber kit. But once you go that low with them you need to consider higher spring rates.. about 12k and 14k.. if not 14k.. and 16k. If your going that low i seriously reccomend considering that
