Good deal on coilovers or a death trap??
 
Found a guy who's selling used Godspeed coilovers for 350. He's had them for 1500 miles. Will I regret this?

there's a reason why they're $350

you don't need coilovers that badly if you're looking at these

Suspension and tires are the 2 places I'd never cheap out in. If you really need the adjustability then I'd say save up, otherwise just get a good set of lowering springs.

I'd add brakes to that list, too.

:tup:
You have to trust the seller as to condition - unless you can test before buying. I'm betting neither you nor the seller have the equipment to test them. As is, they're just spare parts.

There's nothing wrong with the stock base brakes. Just don't buy things like drilled eBay rotors.

Im starting to canyon the car every Sunday or so, I feel like my brakes are nearing their limit. I looked into rotors and everyone says to just stick with stock rotors but what pads should I go with?
