Hey guys,
So like the title says this is a review of c8sport coilovers. I got these coilovers by mistake lol about 3 weeks ago. I originally ordered megan ez's but they were on back order for a week so I was like F that. The guy I was working with offered me c8sport SSD coilovers instead. I looked at the link and fig what the hell. All I can say is I am EXTREMELY impressed with these. They can be extremely stiff if they need to be but they can also be smooth and luxurious (not like stock but you know what I mean). The 30 way dampening is nice. I have it set on 20 clicks and they are pretty stiff, almost too stiff. I think that these could handle the track. Spring rates are 12k front 10k rear I believe. These are some seriously good coilovers. They can go really really low, like I'm pretty sure I can put my frame on the ground. Guys these are for real. I know no one runs them but they are legit. I would venture to say that these are better than most coilovers we can get for our cars. IMO these are better then most Teins. They don't make noise either like most coilovers. I love them.
Specs:
c8sport SSD
msrp:$1500 (I got them for $700)
30 way dampening
Come in black and also a blue/silver color.

It's actually 8k in the back lol. I'd better edit that. I think these are sweet for the price. Check vexmotorsports. Just google it. I've never had megans but I would guess these are on a different level.

They work great. I actually sold the car though. Traded for a 2000 Honda civic si turbo. I really do recommend them though. At the end of the day it was a great purchase. I liked them a lot. For as many problems as people have with tein, D2 etc... these are higher quality and better priced!

i have had these for roughly a year, drove 350 miles a weekend for 4 months... had one adjustment issue, it was because i installed them and made them too low... but as a non name brand set up, they are awesome! for a basic, height adjusting, dampening adjusting coilover, they are great. i dont run hard, or track them so i cant vouch for that, but if u like cruising, showing, or just looks, they are great for the price.
