Default Coilovers Question

So I have 97 EX trying to get some coils on it. I don't really have a lot money to spend on them, so i'm looking for these Megan Racing Coilovers, they are about 85$ for set of 4. These coils will be on the car just till sept-oct , and after my b18c swap i'll put some Tein's on it . So what do you guys think about them ???


Also i have 17" rims with 205/40/17 tires....so just want to make sure that they not gonna rub !

Thanx

Why not save your money and wait? Or if you're going to go Tein, just get them now. IMO, it's really not worth it to buy your suspension twice, when that money can go towards something else.

save your money until you can do something right with them. i have had two sets of coilovers on my car and i dont like them at all. i am going with neuspeed race springs now. if you are getting coils or springs you need to look to get struts as well.

you can get some Tein S-Techs for like $120 man, thats only $35 more than the Megans. If Tein is goin to be your final set-up, drop an extra $35 man, thats really not much at all. Go cash in your spare change and return some bottles and cans, you'll be there
