Im wanting some 11" shocks, rebels are too short. Just wondering if anyone has used any of these, just wanting some opinions and feed back, thanks guys.

These are pretty cheap

That looks to be the same shock 650 Central sells for about $100. Had a pair, they were ok, When I bought them I asked Mercury if they were any good and he said, "Hey, they're $100 shocks!" I ran them for a season and replaced them with Hagon Customs. Better shocks but 3x the money.

They seemed a bit dead to me but I only weigh 130.

I weigh about 135.... Which ones looks like the ones 650 central sells?

I have a set of those Dimecity shocks or very similar that came from TAS motorsports (?). Looks about the price range. I've got them set on the highest setting and they work well enough for me at 180 lbs +/-.

I really like the set on ebay, but i dnt want them to ride like shit lol. And is having a top cover/shroud nessasary? Is it possible to paint the springs on the dime city shocks?

Bump, anyone?

BUMP......

I'm sure you could, never painted shock springs myself, but the chrome needs roughening to hold primer. PolyUrethane paint is somewhat flexable, my first choice...

Would the dimecity or 650 central shock be good for a 135 pounder?
