I too would like to know what the definition of "suck" is. Don't you dare reply with "Skunk2 springs". Mine are fine and I am more than happy with them so far.

Yea i do have experience with them to be honest. I drove my friends teg and boy did that ride harsh. Maybe he just had some other problem, who knows? Other than that, another friend who used to own a large shop down by me, thought they were horrible as well...that is heresy, but oh well

To be honest, they could of been stock. Im really not sure...however, i really dont think they should have ridden that rough unless they were blown. I have suspension techniques springs on stock shocks for now, and have an awesome ride. Idk, i guess it was just bad luck..

I know my buddy mikes sunk2s rode rather harsh on his stock struts, but he has them mated to illuminas now and they ride very nice....do you know if they were just springs or if they were the skunk2 coilovers...I have heard that the skunk2 coilovers are pretty damn harsh...though this is just what I have heard/read not from personal experience...

Actually, come to think of it, they were the Coilovers not the springs. That sounds right, cause i was going to go with the same setup, but my buddy who owned the shop told me not to go with them because of the rough ride it had.
