They are good for the job, just dont expect them to last more than about 15k without falling apart.

I've had mine on since Jan' and they are doing damn fine I reckon. Sure they can be a bit bouncy but I'm more than happy with them. I think I've covered well over 2500K miles in them now, maybe more.

I've had mine on for 4000 miles. Most of them done on the track, still holding up fine. Suit track driving well.

But they are harsh on the road and I don't think I would want that harsh a ride on a daily driver. Any shocks lowered too much will give a harsher ride.

You get what you pay for.
