I have a Nissan Altima 2013 I love your vids! My question is would you recommend them for my car. I have heard that you need to line them up a lot to make sure they don’t make a knocking noise. It’s obviously my daily and I want to have it lowered but not slammed. Thanks💪🏾. Subbed up!
Do you trust how the steering arm is welded on the shock body with your life over the teins? I only ask because its a pain to have road legal coilovers where im from. There's a reason why absolutely no aftermarket brand has passed certification standards here. Some have failed desrtuctive testing which has lead to the certifying authority to only allow custom modified oem shock bodies (i.e koni inserts in oem dc5 shock bodies, with spring adjustment sleeves installed, with proof of welding and paperwork) to pass. The main reason for this is... the oem takes responsibility for their welding. Where as, the certifying authority has to take respinsibility for any aftermarket brand... that's a pretty expensive process for either the consumer or the aftermarket brand. Regarding aftermarket coilovers, If someone wants their aftermarket brand coilovers to pass, they need to pay twice, to see if they will even pass destructice testing, then pay again for new shocks and then finally pay for the cert... which ultimately, opens the flood gates for everyone else to use that one brand on dc5s.
I do trust it, as in your scenario though there are a lot better options as some company’s do have more invested in there products as far as design and engineering. But on the other hand these for the price seem to be doing the job. I daily this car and put a lot of miles on it so time will tell.

how many clicks in your rear vs your front?
Rear all the way tight, fronts I have all the way tight then back 3 clicks I believe.
how does it drive tho
Other than needing a proper alignment, it drives great. Not much body roll at all and soaks up the bumps well.
@@Dc5Max Does it bounce? cause im on stock shocks/lowering springs and that mf is bad
@darktrojan00 I have the damping all the way tight and I’ve noticed no bounce and it’s not to stiff that and still a comfortable ride
