Pros:

Car looks great, it will look even better once I swap it out with my new wheels (G-Games 99B +22 offset).

Handling is definitely improved although I have yet to drive a good twisty road.

Normal road bumps seem to be handled like the OEM springs

Cons:

I have to take a different entrance into my parking lot at work. There is a good size dip that I can't navigate easily without scraping.

The car seems to be bouncy with height changes on the interstate (for example before a small bridge). I lower my speed when I see them and don't scrape but I was hoping that the springs would handle these situations better.

I have yet to tackle a speedbump but I will have tomorrow to see how that goes. No allignment yet so I can't comment on if I will need a camber kit.

If anyone is experiencing different results from me, I would appreciate hearing from you.

Finally, what is the proper method for measuring my ride height?

Thanks!

I will post pictures this weekend once I get my new wheels put on.

Measure from the center of the wheel to the top of the wheel well outter lip.

DO NOT measure from the floor it is very inaccurate.
