Got sick of stock height, cant afford coilovers right now, figured id give it a shot.
$79 Lotek Cobalt Springs on Ebay, funny thing seller couldn't tell me the spring rates and said they were for a base model. Oh well whats $80 and 2 hours of a Saturday. Banged them on quick and was impressed! They certainly are squished and are just about on the front bumps, but with 60k on my stock fe5's these ride better than B&G springs and have the same height, body roll is less but if im hard in a corner and hit a bump it gets a little squirrely.
Overall- Im impressed for $80 and have a coilover low drop. Gotta avoid potholes for sure!!!

I bought a set and installed... it definitely set it low like I wanted but the roads in my town did now permit me to keep them on. Every bump or hole I hit would jar the dash. I will sell these if anyone is interested.
