I've read good, and I've read bad. Don't personally know anyone with them so can't say for sure. I would just spend the little extra and stick with H&R or Eibach personally. You get what you pay for; don't know if thats the case for those or not though.

I've heard people that like them, but I wouldn't let them touch my car. I would put my money on the safe bet like H&R or Eibach. Thoes are probably made out of weaker metal alloys and all that kind of stuff that just make it a bad choice. Yeah the spring rate for a GT springs my be like 50lbs more for the front, if that.
