Default Feedback from owners of LG coil-overs

First let me say I recognize Lou makes a great set up..

My very specifc question (don't really want to discuss the pros and cons of coil-overs vs. composite springs, etc.) is "over time do the solid-links / shock mounts make noise?".

This is still a street car, and the last thing I want to hear is squeaks and rattles every time I hit a bump.

I realize this would not be an issue on a race or track-day only car.

Feedback appreciated.

I just bolted my LG coilovers in last weekend and have not yet driven it other than around the block. have not yet gotten it aligned. But I can tell you about installion. The front lower mount is the same as stock, the upper fronts are a big bolt and it is long enough that you could use rubber bumpers on it to cushion. I just bolted it up hard to the mount cuz I don't care.

There rear uses the stock rubber mount and the upper is a heim type joint which might make some noise. Might be dead quiet.

They fit perfectly.
