Default HSD Coilovers?

Has anybody heard of them, or used them? Any reviews?

http://www.hsdcoilovers.com/application.php

I heard they manufacturer Stance's units for them. Not sure on the truth of that or not

I read that in several places so I suspect it is true. I did a good amount of research on these and heard nothing buy good stuff so I figgured I'd give them a go.

I think I'll leave it at that height for a bit. I haven't driven on it yet but I expect it to settle a little bit lower once I do. Right now there is room for one fat finger between the fender lip and tire.

looks like the powertrix coilovers that were floating around on ebay (www.powertrix.com)... of course this could mean something, or nothing at all. Probably similar to any of the taiwan/china specials you can find. Good enough to lower the car and make the car feel like it's "riding on rails."
