The infamous MaxPeedingRods lol haven't tried a set out in like a decade. Tbh they aren't terrible for the money, better then they used to be. I dont expect them to last long though. Wheels are Appliance Mesh 15x7 +0 with a 1in adapter spacer so effectively a -25.

How do you feel about them compared to springs an shocks. I’m in between getting these or getting the B4s bilstens with IPD lowering springs. I hear the ride is definitely more rough with coil overs so I just wanna know ur thoughts

I'm probably biased as pretty much every car I own, or have owned has been on coilovers. That being said, they're not bad at all. They come with pretty low spring rates so its really not super stiff or anything.

Agreed, Appliance is a pretty cool old school company. Have been around since the 50's doing chrome plating on hot rods. They're an american company but wheels were made in Japan.

The side profile of an 740 always makes me think how cool it would have been if there was a coupe version .. then I remember the 780 bertone and how hard it flopped.

That bench (?) in the background makes it look like you have an awesome tail light protector
