They're made of steel. What'd you expect?

normal wear

what are you talking about???
im talking bout the paint, not what they are made of. i had a set of h&r springs and the paint look new after 2 years. bought this set on august 1, 2007

so this is normal andy??

I dont see the big deal?

yea man, just happens with age

 

[xi0utlawstarix]

maybe not to you, but i dont like rusty shiet like this. if every aftermarket springs started to do this then its not a big deal. but cmon its only a little over a year.

Well compare the brands, Tanabe vs. H&R.... is there a question? The dead coils on my Eibachs started to rust too.

I'll give you a hint, most parts are painted only so they don't rust on the shelf before they are sold.
