kev you heard anything about these?? looking for some coilovers so that i can raise the car in the winter... thinking of getting those or possibly some v1's or v3's (SHUT UP SHANE LEAVE ME ALONE

)

they arent bad, not my first choice, but not bad. whats with the wet spots on the concrete behind both front struts in the picture? kinda a weird wet spot like they are leaking. i thought at first it was from washing them, but for one they dont look washed, and 2, the rear shocks dont have wet concrete under them lol

well put it this way for an extra $200 or $500 would you rather get some v1's or v3's?? (brand new of course)

edit and i will ask what the wet spots are... hopefully i dont get a "i jizzed on the floor" response

200 extra isnt bad, you really dont need v3's adjust ability if your not going to track your car, go for the v1's and just have height adjust ability, most guys who have v3's dont ever adjust the shocks anyway lol

I havent said anything Marbles, you do what you want to your car! I would personally go buy a 2K beater to drive if you are that worried about plowing snow with the front end but hey that is just me! You will have more in coils then a beater for the winter! You could prolly go in Kev's back yard and find a few!

i hear you man... if i get a beater i gotta get insurance... get a parking spot for it... ect... it would cost more than the coilovers no doubt... and it would probably require some kind of mechanical work...

insurance will be like 35.00/month liability only and you will decrease the value of your car by more than that by putting the miles on it! You have to look at things all the way around not to mention if you get into an accident and have to have paint work and it show up on car fax, well you can piss another few thousand dollars away for resale value, not being pushy just trying to see things with eyes wide open!
