If I were you I'd get springs before I got expensive pillows.

even though I have stock 17's, Will it really make a difference in the looks ? Also , are my new tires going to wear out faster with the F-sport springs ?

Another vote for springs but you've already pulled the trigger. Yay!

yeah seems like everyone is hating on the pillows. I can see why, they are just way over priced compared to other items. I'm sure my grandmother can make them for 10-20 bucks. She is an excellent sower with all the machines and stuff. I might just ask her but I feel bad

Yea but i don't want JP pillows someone stated that they are uncomfortable, more for looks... I was looking into the Garson DAD ones with the memory foam, around $120 plus shipping. Now that I think of it i would be retarded to waste that money on 2 baby pillows, LOL
