I got some for free pretty much, just a question. Are they good for free? like is your car having problems now because of them? Stiff ride? Thanks.

I got ebay sleeves on the back of my coupe with worn out struts... the ride is surprisingly nice.

My hatch had them on it when I bought it. I couldn't stand them. Way too stiff and in most cases the sleeves won't fit snugly on the strut which causes them to be bouncy. I took them off within a week. I'd sayn try them out first. If you don't like them just to save up until you have enough to buy a set of coilovers or lowering springs.

i have had them on a few car 91 civic hb, 89 civic hb, 90 crx, 94 civic 4dr and now on my 92 eg9, on each car they were spun all the way down on oe shocks or oe replacement socks, they were kinda bouncy but i liked it
