Default HELP!!! Cant make up my mind :(

I'm trying to get good coilovers for my 01 civic. I have 2 options:

1). Brand New Skunk2 coilovers for $150

2). 2 months old Ground Control for the same price ($150).

For you guys that know something about coilovers: Please let me know which one is better. I have to know asap. Your help is appreciated!

what are you using the car for? If its just a street car (which most 7th gen civics are) I would go with the ground controls, even used its a better deal. they have softer spring rates and are easier on the street than the skunk2s.

If you have to choose from the two, I'd say go for the GC's- given they are in good condtion.

Ground Controls, but you might as well buy stocks too.

skunk 2s are known to have many problems,id go with ground controls,especially if you plan on using stock shocks.you will eventually need some new shocks if you dont have them already,or a better idea is to buy a shock/spring package
