Personally I've never used / tried these however I would say there cheap for a reason

Depends on what you want to use the car for? Is it just for looks, daily driver?

If so you'd be better of with an damper & Spring package from the likes of Eibach or Bilstein. Much better options IMO.

I'd go for the Eibach's But then that's what I sell. Your looking at similar money (+ Springs) for there Pro Damper & Springs.

hi there mate a couple off things, watch out for copys a lot going about on ebey they dont last that long,you do lower them all to 40mm 50mm ect you can get a company to put the car on a machine to get the shocks low and the same height but i do belive thats around £180-260 a few places do this,i done my own and once i lowered and fitted i took the car for a drive i could tell what side was hi/lower by the way it drove it may take a few times to adjust before its seems right.Dont look at where all 4 wheels are on the arches the distance, because the car probly ant on level ground,

It may look good low but it will ride & handle like a bag of st and catch on speedbumps. Never ever again.
