How is the ride quality with such high spring rates? (14k/7k) I'm hoping the valving saves the ride in this case..

Dampening adjustability of the FLT-A2's means you should be able to go from too soft to too hard for your comfort area.

I hear you & agree it should.. but-
I don't think it will go to "too soft". These are still on the firm side of things - even at full soft according to JIC.
However, it is a Heavy car and meant to be lowered while not bottoming out the car. So the spring rate isn't too crazy.. Just more than other makers I've seen for Celsior. (doesn't mean much)
It's all relative anywho.. personal preference is difficult to measure. I guess I'll find out soon enough if it's not for me..

If the JIC FLT-A2's aren't 'for you,' after you try them, let me know
