Default full skunk2 coilover installed and review

i ordered the skunk2 full coilover system from an ebay store which it came with brand new top mounts. i got them for 620 shipped. they had to be assembled which was a piece of cake. they are for a 92-00 civic and 94-01 integra. before i had bomz sleeve coilovers on stock struts which had some damage done. i dropped the front about 1/4 more than it was before for a slight tire tuck that is now even for the back. i left the back the same with a slight tire tuck(only the tread is covered). install took about 3 hours because i have done this suspension modifications to my car many times in the past and the bolts have been removed and installed/removed and installed numerious times. The ride quality really took me by susprise., even with how low the car is it still rides like a dream, better than stock and with a sporty handling characterist. I am low enough that i had to slightly fender roll the front fenders so the tires would clear while turning but only slightly by hand. Pot holes you barely feel and straight driving is as smooth as butter. overall i give them a 9-10 they are deffinitly the best bang for the buck if you are on a budget for damn good suspension, not the best but extremely close. here are some pics
