I have yellow speed coilovers, had them for the past 8K miles. no problems at all, rides just as when I installed them. Only thing I wish was that the rear springrate was stiffer.

Plan to upgrade the rear springs to 12k to reduce my rims contacting my fender on bigger bumps.

I'm guessing youre from norcal, since you found them on craigslist. Thats where I bought mine, actually from vex motorsports.

why not just get teins for 8??? Are the yellowspeeds rebuildable? personally i think its worth the initial investment to buy something rebuildable.

If you've never heard of them...that should be a red flag...Craigslist should have been the next red flag :lol:

Get Megans or BC Racing, good names and a lot of people like them.

Hit us up if you want some help getting a deal on a set
