Black flag height adjustable coilovers reviews?
 
I cannot find any reviews for those coilovers. I bought them as they are originally $600 and I picked them up for $450. Haven't installed them yet and was trying to find any reviews at all on it and none are to be found. I'll be making a video on it when I have time to install them and then review them myself. I might be the first reviewer lol

Blackflag is likely another rebrand of a generic strut/spring combination. If you want to just be low I'm sure it'll hold the weight of the car without an issue. The real difference maker with these kits is whether the hardware just happens to bolt onto the car, rather than being designed for it.

Like I said, it'll hold the car up, just like the $500 Teins, Raceland, etc.

Yeah, those held my friends Miata up real well.
Rear perch failed on the freeway.

you get what you pay for, and i don't trust a bottom bidder to keep spinney bits away from the stationary bits.

Knock off/rebranded/generic modeled after/copied from kw v1? looks like same spring rates and design.

Well, good luck.

There's a reason they're that cheap... it's going to handle worse, ride worse, and possibly fail really quick.

Maybe you can be the first to give us a review? They are new to the market and I'm also curious to see how they do.
