I bought a set then decided to spend 20x more on coilovers before installing them, lol.

If you want mine let me know, $190 shipped, brand new.

Dropping ride height requires "timing" of the rubber suspension bushings.

Oh right. I know not to tighten the bushings everything until you're under load.

Will be interested as I get closer to doing if they are a good spring or I just pay a bit extra for AFE.

Put mine on at the beginning of the year and have been happy with them, only got one full track day on them but I liked the feel of them.

My biggest concern was that I did not want it too low and I think they gave me the perfect ride height. My driveway is a decent hill and I have not bottomed out yet.

Looks great. I smashed my splitter last week, which gives me an excuse to lower my car now. The splitter would always rub on my driveway so going lower with it on would have probably torn it off. Now I'll lower it and move to a house with a flat driveway.
