Got my MAXSPEED springs on today

WooHoo!!! First off I didn't measure before and after so don't ask how much drop. It looks totally better. Now the ride...I have a GLE and I never realized how mushy it was. These new springs are firmer but definatley not rough. I can "feel" the road better. Not every single pebble. No more sway when cornering. Well, a lot less sway than before. Feels fine going down the road, still a smooth ride, still comfortable but feels like it means business now. I took it through some high speed curves and it hugs the road WAY better, I feel more confident now. Had a modded V8 Chevy truck rev on me at a light on the way home...smoked him. No wheel hop off the line. I am satisfied totally. Good bang for your buck.

Did you do just the springs, or the shocks also?

Hey Fred good to see you posting again I just ordered my B+G springs today and my AGXs are sitting in my living room. I should be lowered in about 3 weeks when I have time to do the install. If I have time while I'm home or we do a track meet I'll let know so we can compare and sey hey.
Btw say hi to Rose for me. Last meet when I brought Gina I think she was really glad Rose was there. I totally understand since sometimes we get really into car stuff and stories

I'll try to get some pics on in a day or so.
I only did the springs this time. I want to see how long I can go on my stock struts and shocks but I plan on replacing them by summer.
Hype, Rose is always thrilled to stand around and look at motors...NOT! I have to even it out by taking her out to eat. But really, having her there and seeing the other cars made it easier to talk her into more mods. She was all for the springs after seeing all you guys.
