Ksport USA is a US company(otherwise known as Autoline Industries) which is the importer for Ksport product which is made in Asia. Kontrol Pros are the entry level setup

Ksport doesnt recommend their product for street use

not a bad price though

Those are the best I could find, there were no B&G's on ebay. I really don't want to just do lowering springs. Anyone have these or similar ones that can tell me what they think?

those seem like a pretty good deal, I know megan makes some good ones too. Unfortunately Tein only made for my car, or else I would suggest those.

marissa listen to me. if you are looking for an improvement in handling you are going to need to spend several grand to get a good set of coilovers, not these cheap ass ones. your best bet for around a grand is to do the koni shocks and pick the spring you feel you like the best.

talk to a shop that deals with "performance" suspensions and see what they think of coilovers such as megan and tien

Someone told me that Megan's make a lot of noise well for evo's anyway, is that true for cobalts too? I mainly am doing this to lower the car a bit but not blow my stock struts lol.
