Question Skunk2 Drag Launch coilovers.... do they suck?

I just purchased a set of Skunk2 Drag Launch coilovers. I was wondering do they suck? I didn't Install it yet and they are still brand new with the plastic over them. I thought I bought the regular coilovers but in fact I got the (Drag Launch) coilovers. $450 dollars out of my pocket for those adjustables coils. I read a post sayin they suck.

If they suck on my 96 RS then im selling it.

Re: Skunk2 Drag Launch coilovers.... do they suck?

if you can do it, go for the Tien ...even the Tien Basic is tops...I would definitly wait and get the tien...keep adjusting your height every day though, and youll have to adjust your camber kit too every time...
