Default Ultraride shocks

Has anyone had any experience with these shocks? are they decent or crap?
also anyone had any dealings with ringwood auto parts?

ive found out they're selling these Ultraride lowered shocks for $285 the lot, is that a pretty decent price for the shocks?

thanks

I've had Ultraride short shaft shocks on my EF Ghia, picked them up for $300 about 8 moths ago. They are very good shocks for the price and were suited to my SL's much better than Monroe GT's.
