You definitely feel differents. I have coilovers and big wheels on my car for a long time and familiar with how bumps and joints in the road felt. When I have these parts installed, I instantly noticed it's much smoother when I drove out of the shop.

Simply put- yes you will notice a difference right away. It won't be major but it will be felt especially in the steering and overall feel of the front end.

Lol, that's how my apt feels right now. Just stock-piling tons of parts that I have yet to install. Really looking forward to summer.

If you going to drive it even for one month, this is a mandatory upgrade. PM carnal to see if they give you free install.

Installed them tonight, no instructions included but the install was straight forward. Took about an hour and everything fit together nicely. I took the front wheels off to get alot more space to work.

They improve the ride quality a bit, the bumps in the road feel less harsh and the steering seems more solid. Hard to get a feel for any improvement in handling cause there is to much sand on the roads right now to take my usual test corners safely.

Carnal, I Just finished the install. Does this mod require an alignment after installation? Thanks.

It should not if you installs only one corner at a time. My steering was still perfect after they install the pieces.
Did you drive the car yet?

installed. took 20 min total with air tools. very simple and straight forward install for anyone wondering. my car is lowered on h&r with kyb gr2 sitting on 235 40 18. Is it a huge difference? No. Is there improvement? Yes. You can feel the ride is a little more isolated over bumps. its not felt as much through the steering wheel and the body of the car. my suspension have been replaced with new oem control arms, end links, bushing ,and mounts.minus spring and struts. within 3k. so the ride was very comfortable and stable to begin with. this product is a very good investment. improving and reviving our old tired suspension setup. would highly recommend. the fitment is dead on. also the body has 240k on the clock.

It really feels better than before, on the bumps is more solid, like the shocks

I think they consider it before, and just need to get a car to go in.
