Can't go on the first com first serve basis because the only way I can get the good price on these springs is by paying all 10 at once. By the way things are going I figure all payments will be accounted for by the end of the week if everyone pays today or mails out the M.O.'s today. Checks will take a week to clear so I hope no one sent them.

UPDATE
Just got off the phone with JP at Maxx Tuning. I was the third person out of the ten people that paid for the tien springs. He said the mail hasn't come in yet for all of those who mailed M.O. or checks, but there are 7 spots left.

The Springs for the 4th gen will be available in mid-summer along with the 2000+ Tein Coilovers. Actually the Tein coilovers for the 4th gen may be available earlier than the springs and the 2k+ coilvers because they said anywhere from mid-spring to early summer.

Okay, I decided to make some large payments on a few of my credit cards instead of buying the JIC FLT-A2s... so I'm thinking about getting in on this group deal. Not for sure yet.
Question: Are most of you planning on running these springs on stock struts? If not, which aftermarket struts are you planning on going with?

My stock struts are blown. So I want to go to koni yellows, but does that mean I have to use 4th gen springs? I know I have to use 4th gen top mounts, or modify my stock ones, but I still get confused if I can use 5th gen springs.
Anyone know the answer to this and are 100% positive? Thanks

Cliff notes
1)The best struts are $$ and need modifying
2)Those also have fittment issues with some springs in the rear
3)Direct fit struts don't have fittment issues
4)They are also cheaper
5)They are also slightly stiffer than stock struts
6)No one ever specifically said that these 4th gen struts work and fit perfectly with 5th gen springs (all brands of springs)
So I think I'm gonna go with KYB GR-2's.
LONG VERSION...
Well after sifting through almost all the threads about springs... there's nothing perfect (obviously)
The good ones need modifying and are $$$, and one of them has some fittment issues with certain springs in the rear. Not a problem I want to have to deal with. The ones that don't need modifying might not last as long, but they are less expensive.
I'm not looking to do road racing too much or going to a track, I just want struts that will last and that ride better than my blown struts on my eibach's. I think I'll prob end up going with KYB's... non agx's. In all the threads, no one specifically said they're using 5th gen springs with their 4th gen struts. So I just assume they are.
So pretty much anything will ride better than blown struts. I'll end up going with direct replacement struts. I'm just worried about the camber with the Tiens. So since they're a little lower than eibach's, I'll prob get the eibach camber bolts. At the minimum, it'd bring the camber to what the car is now with the eibach springs (which is fine)
Ok enough typing... much longer than I origonally intended.

I really don't want to modify any stuts, so I might go with the Tokico's. My friend has them with Maxspeeds and pretty descent ride... I am not taking my car to the track every week so tokicos and Teins should do all right...

I'm going to take orders today(Friday) all-day, Saturday all-day, and on Monday until 3:00pm EST. At 3:00pm Monday Feb. 10 we're going to order the springs. This should be more than enough time for people to finish getting their payments to us or for any extra people thinking about it to jump on it. If we don't have anymore orders by the time we order the springs, we will order the extra two sets of spring and keep them in the store but will go up to the regular sticker price.
