They will be horrible. A quality set of shocks and springs would have been better.

Unfortunatly i have to agree with above . Not the first time neither .

I bought some just over a year ago , i done aprox 3000 miles until i noticed 2 shocks were fooked ! Had to continue driving on them for another 1000miles due to funds and it has been awful !! , only took my car off road a month ago .

When they were "fine" it handled like a sack of shite didnt feel proper fromt end grip due to bouncyness .poor quality never again !


If i were you id flog em on . But if your adamant on fitting you have to cut the spring perches off on the front struts .
