i can't get their website to open. are you talking about coilovers or springs? i'm guessing just springs if they're $75. for struts...there's so many options depending on application, comfort, price. if you want a stock replacement go with tokico hp or kyb gr2.

$75 for 4 struts and springs? No go. That's about how much you should look to spend on one strut, bro. Try HERE.

for comfort go with kyp agx or tokico illuminas - i believe both are adjustable from stiff to hard. idk if you can lower your car a whole lot with 20's and not have issues with rubbing on the fender when cornering, same with soft struts.

And be ready to give up ride comfort. I'm on Illuminas with H&Rs, arguably the softest aftermarket suspension setup around, and it's still rougher than a stock SE.

sure thing. i think i've read that anything over 18" on a 4th gen is overkill. i have 17" with 245/45 which is very close to stock 15" with 195/75 height so i don't have to worry about the speedo being off.
