Not sure what I would do with the spare though. :roll:

Ahh, i passed you today just after i picked my car up :)

Initial responce, the car feels great! the dampening settings were reset to roughly halfway, i forgot to tell them that i preset them, but so far they feel great through the corners on my short drive this afternoon, feels a lot flatter compared to my previous Bilstein/King Spring setup.
Im going to give them a good test on Saturday to see how well they handle round-a-bouts and semi quick/fast corners (driving well within the road rules, of course ;) )

I havent gone for a crazy height just yet, when i picked up the car they told me to wait a week for everything to settle down and they will readjust the height for me.

So, ill report back in a week or two once everything has settled down with a review for you Bryce!
So far, im really happy with everything!



You never wrote a report?? Or did you???
Not a Subaru...... Something MUCH better

NOPE..... That's shit too. Bus anyone??

Seems like these are worth going for over regular performance shocks and springs. Can anyone tell me what the ride quality is like please? Id really like a semi stock ride but a tad lower and better cornering. Is this achievable?
