Strength:

gives big drop

Weakness:

a bit bouncy

i love the big drop it gives to my ride, yet a bit bouncy ride.
i'm looking forward to put just the front aftermarket struts on my accord.
i would like to recommend Skunk2 coilovers because it gives nice 4" drop to your ride while others only give like 3".

Strength:

Good height adjustablity, Looks good, a plus for the dual perch.

Weakness:

Bouncy ride, Rough if struts are replaced, can blow out your struts if too low. Not good on bigger cars.

Skunk II kit are good on smaller cars, i've noticed through my car club members that it's gives a very bouncy and rough ride on bigger vehicles. I would suggest it to smaller vehicle owners. I have KYB AGX with these and the reason it's rough is because you can't lower it past 2 1/2 inches or the strut bottoms out. I was riding on my bump stop for quite a while until i noticed that my front end didn't move when i pushed down on it. Strut replacement is a must with any coil-over kit. Take time to shop for what you want, not all products are made to your liking.

Definetely go with a true coil-over system if you intend on racing. These coil-overs are for show.

Strength:

Looks good.

Weakness:

Bouncy and will destroy your shocks.

Very bouncy ride, makes car feel like the springs have been cut. It does very poorly over even the smallest bumps. I do not recommend purchasing this product and I'm going to take them off. I should have done my research before buying these. All show-no-go, they suck!!!

Strength:

Good quality and spring rate.

Weakness:

none yet

I have had the Skunk2 coilovers for a month now with about a 2.25 drop and it rides very well. It rides like any performance car would. If you had a 2 inch drop and it rides bad then you need to cut your bump stops. I left a 1/2 inch left on the bump stop and it rides good. Doesnt ride bumpy, it rides stiff but thats what you want. O yeh i have KYB AGX struts too and i set them on 4 in the back and 2 up front.
