Silvers NeoMax Coilovers

Hi so I am interested in some standard NeoMax coilovers made by Silvers. Just haven't really seen any great reviews on them. Has anyone had these? Are they worth it?
Thanks,
Coop

Looks like your standard rebranded $1k BC setup, spring rates a bit more on the aggressive side but probably passable for DD, it depends on what you want if they'll be any good or if you'LL hate them.

Oh hey what a coincidence Bor Chuann was founded in 1999 too!
Here's the same youtube channel you linked talking about BC, note the end of the video where they talk about selling 'private label' parts. Note I wouldn't consider these guys a non-biased 3rd party but I don't think they're spewing bullshit.

I'd bet money I could take my Megans apart and swap every top hat, spring, spring perch, and lower mount onto the Silvers dampers.

Again, I'm not saying they're bad, just that they're probably not any more specialer than any other $1k kit.

It doesn't help that their website has the same picture for coilover kits for double wishbone Honda's as MacPherson Strut M3's and not-actually-a-coilover Focus ST.
