i might buy a set of these. hope the prices wont go up later...
i guess if they are proven to be as good as other coilovers they would sell better but then again the price would go up...
also for the VWs they havent jumped at all though.

i wouldn't take them to the track. come on, just look at the price tag. they still make profit off them being relatively cheap. they're very inexpensive compared to other coilvers so i doubt so much build thought and quality went into them.

theyre prob so cheap because theyre "knock off"
typically, in the car industry, name brand manufacturers put the time and money in R&D to develop good products.
shortly after that, "knock off" companys copy their exact design, thus saving the time and money put into R&D, essentially allowing them to sell the product for cheaper.
BUT, alot of times they will use diff manufacturing processes and materials as well which cut the cost, but make the product less reputable.
take rota for example, almost if not all of their wheels look just like their name brand counterparts, however the manufacturing process is WAY diff. which leads to a lower quality rim.
not to mention these dont have certain features such as camber adjustment, etc...

Well the only coilovers that go that low are b&g. Also the pic you posted he is not all the way lowered on them.
I am pretty sure he has them almost as far as they will go,
