They're not bad. I don't think they are any worse then any other run of mill springs out there. The ride isn't overly harsh, and they aren't super stiff. The drop was about 2 inches, so its not the lowest drop of all springs. Mine probably have close to 100k on them. They have been on 3 cars now and they have held up to winters in VA and PA. I got them with maybe 20k on them they were on my base model and were horrible on the stock FE1 struts and shocks, but when I swapped them to suspension it was complete game changer. I swapped them on to new FE5 struts when I put them on my SS, and they have been great so far. I would definitely recommend using FE5 struts or koni yellows.

Your car is so sick man. The only thing I'm not a fan of is the white rims. Granted, I get that it makes sense with the theme and all. I'd rather see some dark gold rims on it
Either way, sick ass ride!
