Dropped the Max

i love my new setup, i have eibach springs with Tikico Illumnas. Had them installed over this weekend and ill post some pics tomorow. I think it was really worth getting this done because it drives so much better, the turns are just awesome and i feel like ive gained a little speed because it rides so well. I have it them on soft so it feels very comfortable, havent put it on hard yet but i will soon so i can compare it to the soft. Im so happy with the results, im really amazed how well i can turn at high speeds. The tokico illumnas with the eibach springs is a great match so im recommending this setup to you guys ^^

Cool, nice setup. Can't wait to see the pics. You may notice that it will be bumpy at first, but if yours is like mine, then it will get more comfortable in a week or two. Congrats.

koni's are best. Plus, they come with lifetime warranty at this one performance shop in Chicago - can't go wrong with that

350? that's it? that's like getting the springs for free. Did you buy them used or something?
