Heres some budget coilovers brought to you from ebay I might get them to see how good they are since I hate my springs.

i saw these earlier. but for $34 there has to be a screw up on the coilovers or they might be stolen. lol

 

buy em. 50 bucks! Who cares if they suck.

 

man woudl u scarifice quality for price, imagine now one of those springs snaps or the coil ove lets go,and bam, ull have to replace more than its worth for a good set
save your moneya nd buy quality not junk, its cheap for a reason, i bought cheap for my sunfire and that turned into wheel bearings and bushings, and so on, its not that fiun when toher stuff starts to go

 

I'd kind of like to know what the spring is going to be pushing on in the back since we don't have spring around shock in the rear.

 

just like any other adjustable rear spring. They dont go over any shock. What is your spring pushing on now?

 

I have one thing to say about getting those:

NO! DON'T DO IT!

Read this: Suspension FAQ

Its not specific to the cobalt, but a damn good tool to use to help understand what you should get and why.

Make special note of this line:

 

If you ar elooking for a complete SLAM and I mean SLAM! get those, I had sportlines in my focus but it was too high for me so I got these coilovers and BAM loved the look it was super slammed. However the ride was sooooooooooo jumpy, I mean JUMPY!

 

Ok I wont get them Ill get some sportlines.

 

I got ssc springs and they are good. i dont know if they make anything for the LT but i wouls check it out. Picts in my gallery.

 

I went ahead and bought the kit NOT for my cobalt but for a different project I'm building at work. That way I can see what they are. Were building a project car at my work and we need some springs so why not get these I'm not going to go bankrupt over 50.00. I really only want to see the machined parts.

 

Buying Springs from a company like this....

GeneralIntakes are committed to provide you with total customer service:

Highest quality intake system at the most affordable price in the market.

Most comprehensive technical support in the industry.

Great packaging and fast shipping.

Cheaper shipping cost.

Comes with installation instruction.

Is just stupid, up there with getting herpes for the hell of it

 

Spring rates usually way way too high and the kit lacks the parts needed for install.

 

Thats why I picked these up for a project were working on at work it's not for the actual kit it's for the machined parts for some ideas. If ppl noticed these are only the spring not the complete coilover set up which went unnoticed by some ppl

 

ok so where can you get the struts for those?

 

^ No where. No one makes struts for tha cobalt yet.

And way back when I was first geting in to moding I bout a set of springs like that for my cavy. They sucked big time!
But at the time I thought they where good. But you learn and move on to better things. I just wish some one would have told me that they sucked back then so I would not have waisted time and money on them.
