Default dropzone

I was looking at this set on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-D...53953813QQrdZ1

Seems like a good deal to me, but there was also a coilover set too

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/New-D...54157759QQrdZ1

Has anyone had experience with these? I did a search but didnt really find the answer, also I've heard that avoid coilovers and just stick to springs, if so what do you guys recommend, either way these are the sets I am going to buy, just need some input on the spring or coilover set, thanks.

I have just the 2" Dropzone springs and for like 99 dollars a set of four at the time, I cant complain for the price.......My suspension is nice and tight with a little more aggressive stance ............ not bad.

if you are gonna get the coil overs get the ones with struts as well, i just have the coils on my car and its not to bad of a ride but deffinitly feel every bump in the road..

the coils and struts will be very easy to install and i would recommend getting them both at the same time

Yea, I got a coilover + strut package, its nice. Im lowered about 2.5 inches or so. Handles a lot better, and the ride is noticibly stiffer. I say if you're not in to any kind of serious auto-x, then getem.

yeah I went ahead and bought the spring set since I honestly hate the spring rate of coilovers vs speedbumps lol. And its stated both on teh site and page that it will offer a 2.5F/2.25R drop with the springs so I'll be happy, since that about the recommended drop rates almost everyone will suggest.

Okay got my dropzone in today struts+springs, I choose springs because I wanted the clearance under when going over speed bumps

Anyways whice ones are back and front springs? I knwo somebody said they were mislabled on theirs so jsut wanted to make sure. Are the ones with the much closer spring together towards the top go on the back or front?
