Do you anticipate the ride to be like Eibach's or H&R's? Do you know? You may be the first to actually use them. I like the notation of the 1.6 drop (?).

Are you going to get new struts with the B&G's you ordered?

I have NO idea how the ride is gonna be.. Its gonna be a suprise.. I got them because they are the lowest available drop right now. plus i got a 15% discount. They had eibach and hr too but i wanted to try somthing different. Ya i think i will be the first with them.. just like the panasonic hids. Im a pioneer... I dont know about changing the struts yet. I think im gonna wait on that untill there are more and better options for that.
