ive never seen spring rates like that in a coilover setup for our cars (10kfront/7k rear)
seems like a strange balance. |

At that price there cant be possibly any damping in there. Thats probably a spring with tophats, more or less.

Spend about 350 more and get slightly less shitty coils from a more reputable company.

Their "ARTC Durability & Salt Spray" claim is probably worthless. That's not a standards organization... but rather a massive automotive test lab in Taiwan. If you paid for accelerated life testing and long-term corrosion testing, you'd proudly plaster the details up. When you want to rubber stamp "PASS" on a product, custom standards are great!
Just like with other CX Racing products, they make a compelling product at rock-bottom prices. If you're willing to deal with the hassle of poor tolerances, materials, and design... it can save plenty of $$ (upfront). Please remember that a set of Tein Flex Z's cost about the same, and similarly a lightly used set of BC Racing coilovers. Both are better options, if you need coilovers (rather than springs/shocks).

I wouldn't touch those with a 99 1/2 foot pole. At that price point they are for stancers and show cars and nothing else. I bet they are worse in every way than the stock suspension.
