these are pretty good dude. i had them for like 2 maybe 3 years with the original skunk coilovers. 4 settings for the front 8 in the back.
u could feel the diff. when u launch ur car with the stiffest rear settings.

It turned 180 degrees and i was facing opposite traffic. That's considering i had 4 strut bars and falken ziex 512 tires. If i had to do it over, i save my $$$ and get TEIN dampers. For the record tokico HP are just normal driving. Heavy cornering causes major body roll.
There's much more to a complete suspension set up than shocks, springs, and strut bars. The most important component to eliminating body roll is a decent set of sway bars... Look into it, they will make much more difference than a true coil setup.

I've ran KYB AGX's with H&R Sports, spring rates aren't that high, but the ride was very nice.

ah word.. you know i hanvt yet had the chance to familiarize myself with the site completly yet. I aprreciate inputs made. That set for $200 smells pretty nice from here.
What kind of spring rate are you talking about here??? Is the ride tight or loose with those H&R's
