you know what... I hate to say it, but I might need a pair of these just to get by until I can afford a real suspension package. Im doing an engine swap and iv changed the balance of the car and need something adjustable to level it out.
But lord knows how bad I would feel getting these...
it doesn’t even say anything about spring rates!!!
if anyone has anything to say about these. please do.

You guys are better off sticking with the stock springs. If you are not experienced with coilovers and do not have access to 4 corner scales, the coil overs can really mess with the handling of your car. Not to mention that these coils overs don't even list the spring rates.

I have heard about MK1's sagging, I wouldn't be surprised. I would just get a set of Tein Tech-s springs. Even though the S stands for show, i'd take them over MK1's anyday.

There's always RSR race springs if you want a higher spring rate.
I wouldn't run those. I've seen a lot of kits similar to this and they were just universal kits. The other suggestion I have with these types of setups is to only run them with helper springs and be cautious of the dampers you run with them, not stock.
I wouldn't suggest lowering the vehicle to much without helper springs. All my FC did was clunk and clang. I had to clean the collars/sleeves and prevent debris from building or them from ceasing.
