Do coilovers really go bad in about a year on a lowered car?

Like I said. 99% of Coilivers are not used for their intended purpose.

+1 on that, don't buy skunk2, i would suggest omni power or check out the d2 36way fully adjustables at JHPusa.com (rated better than the Tein), i have a set, they cost me a little over $1000 (kit included, the struts, rear sway bar, skunk2 camber kit front and rear) but you can't get a better ride. i have absolutely no body roll
