Default Cusco Zero-2E Coilovers I NEED INPUT ASAP

Hey guys I am about to buy a set of used Cusco Zero-2E Coilovers for $750.00.

If I want them I need to jump on them RIGHT NOW.

My car is my Daily driver car. I do not race it, I do not track it. I simply use it to drive around town an get from point A to B.

I understand that these coilovers are a bit on the stiff side for a DD car but given the INSANELY cheap price of only $750 bucks should I jump on these or will they just be extremely overkill for a DD car?

How stiff are they really? I know they have adjustable damping.

Are these high maintance coilovers? Do they need constant rebuilding?

This upcoming summer I will be slamming the car on some 18x10 wheels. Will these coils allow my car to be low enough but also stiff enough to avoid bottoming out all the time?

Please anyone with any info or input on these coilovers speak up. I need to buy these come Monday morning 12-27 if I am going to.

The spring rates are 12k/9k. Although stiff for a Lexus, they aren't close to being stiff as say a drifter's car.

You can always get them and sell them for the same price or more if you're not satisfied with them
