They handle bumps fine. I like the ride to me it is not stiff it seems very streetable. As far as the handling it does way better considering I was on the original shocks... LOL!

Yes, My car is HellaSunk but, will be changed in due time. For now it looks good and handles better so I am happy...

Not as low as I would go it I had the right mods to the fenders and also right offset. It will do for now though

Looking good! I think all that you need is some bolt on spacers and a front lip!

I have 1/2 of an inch in front, and 3/4 of an inch in the rear to the inside edge of the fenders. What size spacer do you think would work to make it flush?

I would say stiffer than stock but perfect for the street in my opinion. I live to have cars ride like race cars but this one is very comfortable and controlled. I like the so far and have no complaints.

They are 15 way and they seem to have nice response. They have a slightly stiff ride but nothing I havent been used to. I love cars to roll hard. I do love that these are not harsh at the same time as being a good solid ride. I don't know if that makes sense at all.

I'll pretty much have the same set up for my 400 within the next month ie(megan ez coilovers, pads, rotors & SS lines). I have a new car to daily that gets way better mpg so I'm not afraid of the Megan EZ coilovers being worn prematurely for an after market suspension set up. With that said keep some updates on how your coilovers do over time. Please and thank you? BTW I love your cars color its looking great.
