      @ethanhrubeniuk4732 3 года назад +15

      @L W yeah they definitely will make a profit. I guarantee you that a coil over do not cost $250 to make. So instead of charging $1000 for a full set of coil overs they can lower the price and make a little bit less money per purchase, but there would be more purchases which in turn would make more money or close to the same amount. It is about margins and the best price to put on something to make the most money.

    A little advice. IF you're buying up a size from your stock wheels some cars don't settle correctly with aftermarket wheels and tires. I suggest heavily considering suspension upgrade whether it be springs, coils, or bags to get the look your were searching for. I personally didn't do that after purchasing my 19s and noticed my car sat really high with them on and the fender tire gap was about 4 inches wide. So long story short if you're looking for aftermarket wheels make sure you consider what a suspension upgrade will do for you.

    The problem is it's not affordable, everything that is budget friendly is "trash" but then it jump to twice the price ! Car building is a hobby but hey I have bills to pay and mouths to feed. The average coilover is fucking 1200$ would you believe it's more than my mortgage payment for a month? Will I go for the eBay special with all the same components as the 1200$ one, unfortunately for you yes. I will. I never understood why some coilover set comes without top? I can even get springs for WAY cheaper, I just need something spring rate and low. The average car person will not remove their coil and adjust the thread. On the spring maybe but not the shock part.... And too y'all say you are the spot for tires ! Absolutely I love your variety but the suspension aspects is like BC, tein and acuair. 1000$ and up. What about the little guy ? Why is nothing affordable why the mark up always need to be that high?

And designed to handle well. Unless I wanted to go air, or go with a super agressive race set up. I don't know why I would change it. The good stuff is not all that inexpensive for most people, and most people go for more power first anyway.
