I love mine, ride a bit harder than stock, but not too hard, handle very well... just make sure they are installed correctly.

I think I am going to pull the trigger on this one. Just to be on the safe side, what do you mean make sure they install it right?

That the correct springs go where they are meant, IE front and rear, not reversed.

D_Loke, do you have anymore pics of your car from the side? These look pretty low, are they lower than Espelir's?

Yes they're lower. It's normally different for most people, but it's around a 1.8-2.1 inch drop

Sorry the picture is bad. I have two pairs of "front" springs. The higher ones. I have less than one finger gap all around with this setup, and it handles well during auto-x (compared to a stock one s2k, anyways). I plan on going coil-overs next season, but for now this is pretty good.

Car feels very tight, noticeably less body roll, and im very happy I did it.

EDIT: I run 2xx/50's all around so I have quite a bit of sidewall. I like the look of very meaty tires.
