APEXI USA is Located in Huntington Beach, CA and can rebuild them there, or any reputable shop can purchase rebuild kits and do them in house.
The MSRP is $1350 |

These are similar in quality and performance to other brands of entery level coilovers. What sets them apart is that they are built to APEXi specs, a company with 20 years of motorsports experience as well as a history of producing top quality items for street & track cars. They developed the coilover settings here so that they were better suited to US roads. These coilovers are designed for the everyday enthusiast who will do occasional track days.

While Apexi coil-overs do utilize some BC Suspension components (Mounts), there are more differences that set them apart. Valving & the specific valve used, Spring rate and brand, shock piston, adjustment settings & levels, internal & external components all differ. |

In only one case I would. It would be an isolated incident.
