Don't quote me on this but I'm sure Streetline stuff is actually standard dampers, dimensions are different but the internals are the same as factory stuff. So they'll ride lower matched to the springs but they're no stiffer.

I could be wrong though. And they're cheap.

cant even find a make for the second set so they have got to be cheap cr@p, best spending the extra mate, if you have got springs allready then you can buy g-max shocks on there own without the springs and they will be cheaper than buying a whole new set like the aboves

the streetline stuff is actually quite good. much better than g-max. i know a few people with it and it seems ok. a local tuning place up here (evo-r) are the uk's main distributor and they have sold loads and never had any probs with them.

il say it again, DONT BUY G-MAX COS ITS SHITE.
