A coilover is an adjustable shock/spring setup, where the shock is mounted inside the spring. If you had your suspension replaced with Dinan's, then you would have the stock springs, shock/struts, and rear swaybar available.

I only need the rear coil springs. Do you have a price in mind? I think 4 new H&R coil springs are about $249. I also think I've seen 4 used M5 coil springs auction for anywhere from $50 - $100 on e-bay, but I'm not sure. Can please you tell me what you will take including shipping for just the two rear coil springs?
I'll take a 100US for them. Can you give me your address so I can calculate the shipping?

Thank you for your reply. $100 is the highest price I've ever seen (or can even imagine) for four (4) used coil springs.

I thought you might accept something less than $100 for all four. Certainly, $60 or $70 or maybe even $75 would be reasonable for four used coil springs.

Can you please reconsider and tell me the least amount you will take for the package of four including shipping?
man, I don't know what these things go for. U gave me a price range, and as a seller, isn't it only natural that I go high end?

anyways, u tell me what u want to pay for them.

I need to know your address to calculate shipping costs

You are correct! And I'm willing to pay $100 for all four, or $65 for the two rear springs, including shipping. My address is:

Paul Marble
2451 Canyon Creek Road
Escondido, CA 92025

Shipping is expensive. UPS-ground shipping from Totonto to Escondido is about $2/pound. Two springs weigh about 12 pounds (6 pounds each without shock) so shipping is about $25. You pocket only $40. If you ship four, you are left with $50.

I didn't realize shipping would be this much. If you decide to do it anyway just to be nice, that would be great.....but I don't expect it.

You might re-post to find a local buyer in Toronto. If someone offers you $50 for four, you will save the hassle of packing and shipping. If you don't get any replies, you should then consider sending them to me.
sorry, it was 100 plus shipping.

no worries. I am in no hurry to sell.

good luck on finding something closer to home...
