The quote "You get what you pay for" comes to mind.

They don't even list the spring rates, and it doesn't look like the shocks are adjustable (which is probably why they are cheap).

if they are anything like the seats they sell, they look nice, fall apart after 30 mins of use, and dont have any warranty

considering you can get Tein Basics for that price, i'd pass

why not look on a vendor's website yourself? note: the price will be within 100 bucks I am sure.

Wouldn't you want to pay little more if your life depended on it?

"You get what you pay for", believe me only a fraction here aren't lured to the dark side of low prices. They think it's cheap and good, they are right about one thing, it's cheap and they don't know any better, their loss.

Just a thought, try and find something slightly used that's of a known quality in the market place.

I have to agree, something like this just pay the extra money. Plenty of vendor's on this site, too.
