Vogtland springs question.

Guys I recently got a set of vogtland springs for a damn good price. I have a few questions for those with them. I have seen a few threads a while back and everything seams good with these springs but what I want to know is how is the ride with stock struts? What and or should I cut the bump stops?I have also seen that the ride is a little low in the rear than the front so how bad would it look with just putting the vogtlands in the front and keeping the rears stock?. Thanks guys.

I have had my Vogtland on stock struts, front/rear, for about 6 months now and they are fine, they dampen well. i love the handling, control, agility and look. my 03 struts are a little newer than your 01, im assuming, so...

many org'ers suggest switching out struts especially if your drop is greater than 1.5", many couldn't believe how long they waited and how they regreted that.

seems you have some reading to do, like Derrick2k2SE said, they are a lot of disscusions about springs, but a few Vogtland specific too.


playboi21617,

it will do that, but i like the more even, ever so slightly higher than rear, looks pretty damn even to me.
