i have em and theyre not bad , people will say unsafe , the only unsafe thing is the rear springs which have an identical setup and both 1500 and 150 coilovers share teh possibility of the springs "popping" out so.... they ride pretty crapp when pretty low but oh well , i'm lower than tanabe df210's so that makes me happy. these are just my in-betweens stock and air bags. oh and the limitations of both the springs and your front struts will not allow 0-4 inch lowering more like max 2.5 rear and max 2.5 front. still lower than others , if i only had rims it's look lower cuz the wider tires fill the gaps more .

I got mine a long time ago and the springs are red with black sleeves. I have no complaints about them and they sit pretty low at the lowest setting.
