People were having problems with these coils because they were going with a True Coilover setup. I was told that these are not really designed to be a True setup. If you run them how they come I believe there are zero problems and they are good coils.. Been thinking about picking some up for myself.

A lot of members who *had* clunking noises determined that it was a faulty installation and NOT a result of the coilovers themselves. twalls can chime in

I believe I was the first to convert to true coil, and one thing that MUST be paid attention to (clunky noises) is the tightening of the bolt that connects the spring bucket.. THAT is what caused the noise, not the coils..

The coils have been great ESPECIALLY in true coil setup.. That fixed my bounciness issue (and that's only because of how low I ride). I wanted my ride stiffer in the rear, and true coil config fixed all of that..

I've had these coils only because I've never had the desire to change after that noise was remedied..

They're VERY comfortable and highly adjustable to whatever ride you'd like.. They've been track tested and approved (Nate Hamilton drove them for the XDC tour last year until he just got a new sponsorship w/ Ksport) So even tracking them is kewl.. So I don't see how our daily city driving could be any harder on them than that..

As far as their warranty, I did actually rupture one (bad seals) and Topspeed fixed it w/out question VERY quickly.. So I can personally vouch for their warranty and them standing behind their product as well. They got a new company from my understanding to make their seals now, and I've not had any problems since.

+1 on what Tony said, I was having the seal issue with one of the front ones and one of the rears Topspeed swapped them out no questions asked. No problems after that. I like the double adjustability of them.
