Default Suncore coil spring review

They work but the welds are not all the way around and suspect.

I complained to suncore about the front strut/spring assembly making noise on small bumps.

They sent me a replacement set. The replacement set has better welds where the strut meets the mounting point for the lower control arm, honestly the whole strut looks way better, like a total redesign.

I'm excited to put these on and will update at that time.

For the price I'm a fan now.

I installed the replacement set.

The spring height was shorter than the first set, again build quality was also much better.

The car had a clunk over light bumps. The replacement set remedied this issue.
