Seems to cheap to me, you get what you pay for.

Might be batting out of my league here but they look like they've been lifted from a set of coilovers, so if it were me i'd be certain that they will suit standard spring seats b4 buying - if thats where your proposing to put them. Peace...

U need a good short stroked shock for them to perform correctly. I would save some money for a 60/40 cup kit.

Seems tempting for the price...
Not sure how theyd fit all original shocks from every model tho, you go first!

Okay here we go, rant mode engage:
Suspension is stuff that is not to be trifled with. If you value safe reliable handling then you do NOT use cheap and cheerful suspension parts to make your ride fully sik.
Do it properly! At least either go a H&R cup kit, the ole koni/eibach combo or a set of hottuning coilovers (or save your pennies for some KW coilovers )

There, rant over

I'm not actually RECOMMENDING this, but rather telling you that I have a different brand of the exact same thing.

I've got Koni shocks, and the springs are Eibach springs which are matched to Ground-Control Coilover Sleeves (basically the silver threaded things you see in the ebay picture). I absolutely love the ride, but I strongly believe that's due to the brands I'm using.

In my opinion, this setup from ebay will perform better with new, aftermarket shocks (bilstein, koni, H&R, etc). You CAN use it on your stock shocks but it shortens the lifespan of them and if they're old enough already they might crap out within a month.
