When it comes to suspension, you never want to cheap out, they don't have a name means they will most likely ride like crap, and wear out after a very short time, i know it's tempting cause it may be in your price range at the moment, but you'll only be wasting money in the long run, it's best to just save your money and get the goods later on

as soon as I saw the ebay link I was suspicious. You get what you pay for
I noticed they listed the rear springs at 18k and the fronts at 12k. does that sound right

Save and buy a good setup - im on my 4th set of suspension and wasted so much money on cheaper options, should have just got good stuff in the first place

No no no no no.
No.
NO.
If you want to spend money on your car please do it properly and don't skimp on the bits that keep on the road. Save some money, buy something decent. Do NOT go out spending a pittance on something because it's cheap and it looks like it might possibly fill your criteria.
No.
Don't do it. Save for some Tein Super Streets or something half decent at least.
