I had to be sure. $300 is no joke.

there was some people hating on these but they dont have it so not going to listen to them.

i really hate my TRD springs with Stock shocks.
not because their a rough its cuz they dont really work together.

can probably make $80 on the springs and maybe keep the stock springs and shocks just incase something happens.


from 1-10 how do u guys rate the overall quality of the coilovers?
and the built quality?

I think the build quality for $300 is great.
They are not as "well built" as true coilovers, but like I said, for $300, they do exactly what they are supposed to do, and they do it well.

I wouldnt expect much for performance driving out of $300 coilovers, or from Raceland. So that is not much of a surprise.
