They are about 3 days from being removed. They are good springs but not exactly for what I'm trying to do. You although they lowered the car about 1.3 inches, they are only barely stiffer than stock. This is good if you wish to keep some ride quality but, for me that isn't all that important and when I got them, I had NO Idea they were thqat close to stock ride quality. I was only really concerned that they were some of the springs that would drop the car the least amount. I've since decided that I can afford to go another 1/4 inch and in doing so I'll step up to an even stiffer spring. The ones I have now (still in the box) are those made by Intrax. I understand other here don't like them and think they lower the car too much and eventually start to sag, I don't know about that claim though. I only know that I've used them in the past and they are KICK A$$ Springs and they offer exactly what I'm loking for. They will be installed in the next few days, I'll report back then. Like I said though at the begining, the SAS Springs are and have been good springs, just aren't stiff enough for me that all. The SAS spings have been on the car for less than 6,000 miles easily and they are being replaced in the name of progress. Perhaps they'll make someone else happy?
See Ya,
Phil
