The most important part is how low you set them. Set them for a one inch drop and you won't have a problem. Set them for a three inch drop and you'll chew up tires in a few thousand miles and blow your shocks/struts out.

JDM style? :lmfao:

I guess if blowing out your shocks, causing major suspension damage, and risking your life and car to jump on the JDM bandwagon is worth it to you, go for it.

Yea i got DropZone Coilovers, i think i dropped it like 2 inches, its not that bad of a ride, i kept the stock shocks and its bumpy as hell in the back, so i need to buy some shocks/struts, to make it more solid. If i had to do it again, i would get some Tein Super Street Coilovers, my buddy has them and there great.

anything on ebay that says "jdm style" is a cheap knock off not worth the time and effort to deal with that sh*t especially when it involves mechanics.
