Sleeve type coilovers?

I've been looking around on the internet for a way to lower my car without spending 1000+ dollars. I came across this one type of coilovers, they're sleeve type which just fits over your existing shocks/struts I guess. They are considerably cheaper than true coilovers, but I also hear they can be dangerous and a waste of money. If anyone knows anything more about either of these please let me know, b/c I really don't know what to do. Peace.

It really depends on the brand. Good brands for sleeve-overs are Skunk2, Ground Control, and DropZone are okay brands. It's when you buy no names from eBay that the danger things comes in to play.

yeah, if you have the name brand, then dont worry..if your worried about the shocks/struts to, then get some aftermarket ones to!

I also heard that sleeve types can ride rough, but I guess if I get the good brands then I probably won't have to worry about that huh?

finch13 -> RE: Sleeve type coilovers? (6/2/2008 1:24:06 PM)

I have heard that the Skunk2 ones have been known to blow shocks and the Ground Control ones are the best...
