How are dropzone coilovers? I have stock suspension on my 95 lx and was wondering if I should get these. Is there a difference between coupes, sedans and hatchies or do they all use the same one? How much is a good price for these? Will I need something else to fit these? Any help would be great.
T.I.A.
heres a pic of it

um ya all the suspension is inner changable. i have maxspeed coils on mine with stock shocks. but you will have to remove the rear shock dust covers. there is like a lil metal sleev tha keeps it from coming off. just have to pry it off or use a grinder. takes like 5 min with a hammer and a flathead.lol but ya those will work.

So I dont need to buy new struts or springs? Do you know how the ride is on these? I live in NYC and the road are the worse. Do these lower my car or will it stay the same height? And is $50 a good deal?

Those are cheap generic springs. I'd spend my money on a better product instead of installing them and wishing I got something better. Your ride will be bouncy if you install those on your oem shocks until they start leaking from bottoming out - then your car will be really bouncy.

dude r u serious you dont know if these lower your car??????? honestly? there called lowering springs for a reason. if you looking to lower your car for cheap and quick ther fine. but like teal said if your looking fo a nice ride and long lasting setup your gonna have to save. the only reason i use them on mine is i will be getting a better setup, just wanted it to be slammed for the shows and it just looks sick.
