I was shocked. lol jk you are shocked to get it. Anyway yes they are cheaper than perfect shocks but they do what they say and I knew what I was buying when I bought them. I specifically wanted the cheapest I could find because my car was already dangerous to be on the road, nothing could make it worse. Long story short, they did the job they were meant to do, which was the cheapest dampers I could find. If you buy these expected track specs, I suggest you pick up a new hobby.
