Just installed brand new Standard Performance Coilovers

on the Fit.

I cant say enough how happy I am with this setup. My previous coilovers couldnt go as low as I wanted in the rear, so I picked these coilovers up. I must say that the fit and finish on these coils are bar none. Comes with shorter sway bar end links.

The coilovers themselves.

Sorry about the quality of the pictures as I cant find my battery charger for my camera.

I drive the car 120 miles round trip to work Monday through Friday on some of the worst road you could imagine and to me the car rides a little stiffer than stock. I have only adjust the stiffness by 2 clicks to "Hard"

Its looks nice dumped like that.

The quality of the coilovers looks very good as well. Are they all the way down front and rear?

Can go down a little more in the rear, and ALOT in the front.

Huh, I've never heard of these coilovers . . . google isn't helping much either. Any more info? Spring rates? MSRP? Adjustability?

And I gotta say it - count me in the minority (on this site, anyway) that thinks that's way too low of a drop.

Spring rates are 6k/6k. I was only trying to show the adjustability of the coils. The car is not that low right now. MSRP is 85o shipped. But I can do a little bit better than that. PM for me for pricing.
