On the flip side you know the aren't a quality piece and you're making compromises you'll feel every time you take a corner or go over a bump.
To the OP: If you're looking to lower your car you'll also need to find and install front and rear camber kits, or you'll burn through $200 tires like a Subaru driver empties vape tanks.... You can get these used for around $250 for the whole set if you wait for partouts. Just something else to think about when dropping one of these on a budget.
You might consider getting the camber kits used, dropping the car on used lowering springs/stock 350z springs, and dailying the car on struts, planning to install coilovers and rebuild the old camber kits when its time for new struts. Then you go sell the lowering springs for the same price you bought em for.

You obviously haven't ridden on a set of quality coilovers. The ebay ones suck like csw said.
lolol I drive a GTO and vape so what does that make me?

Someone that should know better! Do you honestly believe putting that crap in your body is good for you? Spend all that Vape $$ on new, lighter wheels for your Goat! Oh, I just bought the last set of BFG's for my Wife's Corvette size 255/50X16 in the world=$800!
