jic's are overpriced trashy coilovers. first they are too stiff for the streets and their quality sucks. to the op, im telling you, the groundcontrols/koni yellows will be your best bet. i just installed a set on my friends eg, spring rate 400f/275r, konis set to full soft, the ride is awesome. it was smooth similar to stock. spend a little bit more and do it right the first time and you will thank me later. if i didnt have my tein flex, i would get the gc/koni setup in a heart beat.
