XYZ Sport coilovers??

Was looking on ebay and came across these:

XYZ SPORT COILOVER 05-10 COBALT 30-STEP ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM COILOVERS | eBay

I've never heard of em and haven't seen anyone on here running them, does anyone know about this company or if these coilovers are any good?

Also saw them just appear out of nowhere a couple weeks ago. I don't know of one person running them. There spring rates seem completely off though.

I've been reading around online and they are a european company that produces suspension and brakes for supercars in Europe. They seem pretty reputable from what I've read. A lot of people on other forums say they are better than megans/BC racing coils. Would be interested to see comparisons if someone buys a set (I wish I had the money to right now), although any other shock/strut would be an upgrade to my fe1 suspension lol

I did some digging and they look somewhat reputable, best answered by someone who has owned their products though.

Agreed, which is why i was poking around on a few other forums where i saw their name come up (vw, bmw, honda forums, etc) and the reviews seemed pretty good from the members in those sites.

That would only attest to there build quality though. 8k front and 4k rear spring rates would be OK for normal driving but horrible for any type of spirited driving.

I'm a noob when it comes to spring rates and such, but from what i read a lot of people say 6 or 8K is too soft so i can imagine the 4K will be super soft.
