Pros: They appear to be quite well made. Their diameter is slightly larger than the series. So theoretically they have more damping oil. Now the potential is bad: they have very small rubber bushings and are much smaller than standard bushing cups. They were also badly scratched and dented. (but there were no boxes) They were new and unused. but they were pretty beat up. If I had time to wait I would send them back for another pair. but in the end I just installed them. I'm not entirely happy with them and hope they don't rust. but they work fine. It doesn't look like new shock absorbers though. Spring . I would still recommend it as an inexpensive replacement.
