HKS HIPERMAX LS+

driven about 25,000 miles ~ 30,000 miles

what will be the reasonable price for them?

I would hesitate to buy coils with almost 30K miles on them. No way to know what kind of shape they're in and you're probably looking at between $1000-1200 as a price.

If it were me, I'd just spend the $1200 and get a brand new set like the Tanabe Pro5s with full warranty. Or you could spend a little less on the BCs and have a little extra money for another mod.

That's what I was thinking, $1200 should be about the average. Finding a set with the pillow top so you have some adjustment is important too...Gary

do you think 30k miles on them is not a very big deal? unless it seems to have no problems?

the only thing that I can check with them is it has no crcking sound when driving

and I checked the damping force by pressing the car with full stiff and full soft.

I could feel the difference btw them.

I'm confused, didn't you already buy the coils? If so why the question and what did you end up paying for them??

Sound like buying on a whim... I guess now is a good time to research by using the "search" key
