I am thinking about getting some new coilovers for my car cos my shocks are wasted. I have been told HD is a good brand.

Anybody know anything bout them?

Thanks

only thing i know is the spring rates are very high. may not be the best option for street.
they are cheap though.
i'm sure you are probable wanting to know about reliability and stuff. about that i cant help you, but am sure there are people here that can tell you a thing or two.

high spring rates will be great around smooth roads. However city streets are far from smooth. if you hit a bump going round a corner, your tire may skip loosing contact with the road.

just to give you an idea:
eibach sportline for civic approximatly 4kg/mm front 2kg/mm rear
HD coilover is about 10kg/mm front 8kg/mm rear
