This is for those who ride on these. Tein basic and Megan full coilovers ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Megan...spagenameZWD1V ) I'm not sure which one to get and its come to these since they fit my budget. I just need to now what your experience has been riding on this set up (Noise,handling,roughness,.....). again this question is for those who have them installed on there Vic thanks

Can i ask why you don't like the koni struts?? I'm thinking for the price of the koni yellows and springs, you should be able to get the tein basics for the same price right?

id get megans if they were the same price jus tbecause more adjustibility. If adjustibility wasnt an issue, Id go for the basics.

Ever since i got the koni i have been having nothing but problems. the front struts keep blowing the oil out of the top by the adjustment ****. i had them replaced about 6 times. the people in the warranty department told me they have been having problems with the 55mm. This time they don't reply to my emails. for those planning to get the Koni struts just save a little more and get full coilovers.
