Default Anyone running ST v1 coilovers? Need Advice

Saw these on modbargains and seems like a pretty quality product, I don't track my car, only use it as a DD. If you have any positive or negative experience with this setup fill me in!

Can't find better set for under 1k. Call Modbargains and ask for Jurrian, tell him i refer you and he can't help you out. GL

Buy em from Prit at EA on here rather than Modbargains. I got mine for 900-950 something like that shipped.

Modbargains, is anything but a bargain for mostly everything compared to the sponsors prices on here. I used to use em in my E46F days.

Tell em I sent you.

Props for Modbargains. Over a year ago they hooked me up with a great price and speedy shipping. Ask for Allan.

thanks for the responses, I'm on a budget right now so these were at the top of my list price wise. The website says the drop is .8"-1.6" drop, anyone have a more accurate level of drop it gives, I like the lower to the ground look, but obviously still useable to DD'ing.

If you want slammed i wouldnt get them. It will be to bouncy. I you a barely a finger gap between the fender and the tire then these will work.
