Stock non-sport for now. When these blow (which they will) I'm gonna get Bilstein sports along with the ECS coilover conversion.

Looks good anyway. I'm trying to decide between the race and sport springs. I was pretty much ready to go with the sports until I saw this. Hows it feel on the street?

A little rougher than stock. I'm guessing most of that is cause the shocks aren't made for being that low. But it's definitely smoother than I thought it'd be.

i ran those springs on stock non sport shocks for over a year and they didn't blow. don't you just love the lessened body roll? makes the nose feel like it wants to turn

The lessened body roll is quite amazing. I knew it'd be reduced but it's almost non-existent with these springs. Love it.
