Default double adjustable rear coil overs

i have a 06 gto with a fab 9" housing ladder bars coil over setup and i am wondering if the afco double adjustable coil overs are that much better than the qa1's double adjustable coil over. i am going to get some when my tax check gets here and just looking for some input before i spend over $700 on coil overs.thanks

I have been around to many cars running QA1's and the go bad after a little over a season. That's why I buy Strange, but if I had the extra cash just lying around I would pick up some Afcos. This is my breakdown of it...

Afcos>QA1's By far.
Afco>Strange
Strange>QA1

There is no comparison between AFCO and QA1. I keep them in stock so let me know when you are ready and we can work a deal.
