You get what you pay for. Dropzone springs and struts are not what you want. Sure...they'll be fine for the first few thousand miles. When they go bad...they go bad. Would you rather have quality shocks backed up by lots of research and development and a full warranty....or shocks that were sold cheap just to make money?


Tokico HP's (blues) are not that expensive.

I love my blues. They were very inexpensive and I havent had one problem yet, except for the damn driveways , I am still getting used to a lowered car

drop zone has a full warrenty lifetime on the product, and 30,000mile blowout, i have been riding on them for 1000's of miles, at fast speeds over bumps sharp turns, with exceeded weight and they still ride the same as the day i put them on. i dont know why everyone disses dropzone struts, how did they get a bad name, they are inexpensive but that doesnt say that they are bad, honda's are inexpensive cars and in my opinion the best cars on the market with the best engineering. i love my dropzones, yea there are better than dropzones of course, but there is nothing wrong with these struts. i have had, blues and oems other than my dropzone, i have had ground controls, shitty coilovers, and my prokit that i have now. my ride with prokit and dropzones is great,i would like to get a little stiffer spring rate, but i am very satisfited with my dropzones, more than Tokico blues, and oem.

I thought you said they were too hard for your springs.

:edit: and if you proclaim ground controls to be "shitty coilovers" in general, your definition of quality is far from the norm. In my experienced and informed opinion, ground controls are the best coilovers money can buy under ~$1400.

well, if thats the case, they certainly aren't ideal for his tein s-techs... which are about the same rate as pro-kits.
