How much are you guys asking for them?

I have no idea what these might be worth, I find that Ebay is a real good tool to determine market value for items like this.

they are in my way and i'm tired of knocking them over onto my foot - make me an offer i can't refuse (translation, just don't insult me and i'm fine) and the're yours - by the way, they only have about 35k on them

FWIW, the 25.5mm is the M030 size for post-'87 944 (all models).



Frankly, I don't think they are worth very much because of labor involved in installing them. Most people would rather jump to ~27mm (220lbs effective) if they are going to go through the hassle of of replacement. Why stop at 25.5mm (175lbs effective)? Of course, stock is only 23.5mm (125lbs effective).

they would allow him to compete in a "stock" class though, since it was avaliable in that car - it would also not require respringing the front as much to match, in fact, he could probably stick with the stock front springs

They also fit the 924S and will work well with H&R progressive rate springs for a street and track car. I am trying to sell mine for $50 with no takers. Have also offered the front anti-sway bar and rear anti-sway bar and the 968 front springs along with the Torsion bars as a package for $250 and still no takers. Go figure, good luck, Bob Blackwell.

Last set I saw on eBay went for $9.99 (auction # 7977720563). I would be interested in a set at that price. Thanks, Nick

Nick, I don't think I will ever be interested in selling them for anything near that price, good luck, Bob Blackwell.

Thanks Bob, I am new here, been watching for a while but sure did not mean to insult you. Just going by what I saw on eBay. Let me know what you want for them (offline if you like) and I will give it some consideration. us944@yahoo.com
