i think if its a name brand from a decent storefront, you'd be ok. i would stay away from an off brand though unless you can see it and touch it before you buy it.

Two things you can't go eBay brand: suspension and exhaust.

It's all about the brand.... If you simply want a lowered car and don't care if it bounces around a bit then have at it, ebay away, if you want a nice setup that handles well then stick to name brand.... do you have a price range you need to be in?

i have found a set of dropzone springs and struts for $300. its 2.5 in drop in front and 2.25 in the rear. i just got a set of 17 in rims today for $200 with tires. is a 2.5 in drop going tobe to low once i have my 17s installed? how good are drop zone springs and struts?
