What are your offset and tire sizes? Did you have to roll your fenders?
Front: 225/40/18
Rear: 245/35/18 or 225/40/18 (stretched) works. I've tried both and currently experiementing with the stretched fit.
I didn't roll my fenders. I have about a finger space and a little some in the rear that is very close to fit provided how the rears camber in some to just under the fender if it were slammed.

yes, stock shocks.
The ride is stiffer with the higher spring rates, but I'm not breaking my back or anything from driving it around local back roads.
Coming from the 02 stock suspension, the spring rate and ratio of front to rear is closer to the original AP1 tail happy setting that I was seeking to attain from deciding on the Espelirs.
My overall impression is I am happy with the way the springs are responding because it fits my personal driving needs and I am still experiementing with them.

Car looks great! Good video too.

You forgot to add the alignment section to your video. I just put on those espelir's on my 17's, and I had major camber issues...let alone(18's?!).. Get that baby to the shop...
Looks Siick !
