nope... probably not even worth the 25 you spent on them.

put them back in the junkyard. either way they will end up back there either if you return them or if its on your car

Are you new? There's a ton of info just in the last 30 days about these springs. THey're junk. I'm afraid Bagged is right. They're goin back to the junk yard either way.

well ok i will say this i have them but are getting replaced with the koni sport kit as we speak.....but i will say i dont think they are that bad. yes there are better ones out there, but they didnt sag over the period of the year i had them on, and yes the ride was bouncy but i didnt change the shocks and rode arount with them on stock shocks. i think they look good, infact if u want to see what they look like on an 04 cav just look in my profile and u will see them on my car. but for 25 bucks id say what the hell, but i would sugest u get better shocks.

thanks for giving me a good laugh.

I think Michael has it the best. It's not like they going to break in half or something catastrophic like that. But they will bounce, which is mildly dangerous (some people will contend this, they really don't know what they're talking about).

You wouldn't think of purposely compromising your car's brakes, why would you compromise your suspension?

again i think with better shocks they would have been better, but i didnt know any better at the time i had bought them, it was when i first got the car and before i found this websight, and i was new to the whole "tuning thing"

Is there a way that I can a dollar for every new thread that comes up about these things?

i wouldnt even try wasting a good shock on springs like that

SSCAVALIER,

you know we 3rd gens have ONLY struts right? no shocks there!

He was being general. No need to get your panties in a bundle.
