Corksport Strut/Shock Setup for An O6 Sedan Sport

[MDMaz3]

I was looking for a decent middleground solution to replacing my blown BC Coils( will be selling the set for some residual if anyone's interested in spares). I'm done with the coilovers. 2 blown in one year. Replacements are just too rich for my blood and the back and fro to FLA while the car is out of commiss doesn't make sense anymore.
Big disappointment in quality considering how little use was on them. I've had Bilsteins all my life and swear they are the best pound for pound for allround durability for monotube but that was before remortgaging and 2 sons in university.

So looking at Corksports adjustable set, but don't see much out there in reviews. Does anyone have any experience or knowledge about these. The 2 year warranty leaves me a little suspect considering KYB's and Bilsteins are lifetime. Again, I'm looking for middleground.

BTW...I like the fact that the rears are more easily adjusted on the fly compared to the Koni Yellows.

Any help would be appreciated.

I was on the boat deciding between CS, Koni Yellow. I end up getting the Koni even the price is a bit higher but lifetime warranty is a huge plus.

There is actually a initial review for these Corksport adjustable struts and shocks at MSF. here is the link:

I'm on the fence as well. I just had a blown left rear shock. Looking to replace them all with either koni yellows or these cs adjustable struts and shocks. The OP is correct, the adjustable feature without removing the shocks sounded promising; the price point is amazing; however the 2 years warranty might not be cutting it. Consider the luck that I'm having, almost everything that I have purchased aftermarket had been replaced under warranty. I still have a few more months to digest this before the summer hits. If Koni's goes on sale, I might just go ahead with Koni.

Thanks for the link. I have reservations on the 2 year warranty.

The car is going to my older son for school. He's already intimated he wants Prokits, but with the budget was thinking instead KYB's and Prokits for a mild drop and relative . The KYB's have a lifetime warranty. Too bad they don't have a lifetime on these or more people haven't chimed in to review...seems like a great alternative.

Thanks Guys.
