Default First pics of new Bilstein PSS9 coilovers!!!!

Hey all,
Here are a couple before and after pics of the new Bilstein PSS9 coilovers. These things are incredible. The car feels so much more responsive and tight. For the others that have bought these from sky-chicken, I have it lowered 1 inch all the way around and the stiffness setting on 6 all the way around. With the stiffness settings 1 is firmest and 9 is softest. I'm sure I will change it from time to time because it is so easy!!! Just pop the hood and turn the dial on top of the strut tower for the front. For the rear, just peel back the trunk liner and do the same as the front. It's that easy!!. I drove around for a while and changed them, felt like 6 was the best for all around stuff. Definitely go stiffer for the track, softer if you want a smoother ride. I will be posting many more pics when I have all of my other recently purchased mods installed (wheels, rotors, calipers, etc.) I was just so excited to finally have these things on, I posted these as soon as it was done. Feel free to ask any questions or post your opinions. Thanks again Mike, these things are the best investment I've made yet for my S. Many a Mike.
Later all,
Chris

By the way, I was trying to relate how it feels driving the car now with these on. I feel like a spider crawling around on the ground, like there is no way I will lose grip or sway anywhere. I felt no roll at all when I was taking some high speed turns. I hope for anyone else interested that these can come available again at a price like sky offered.

Does anyone know why the come with red springs? Every PSS9 kit I've seen comes with blue springs. Just a minor aesthetic beef of mine . . .

Oh, don't you worry Brandon. As soon as my Volk GT-C's come in, along with my AirWalker Front and Sides, it's ON!!! This is just trial run.
