I never thought I would be saying this but I love'em, the ride for my car actually improved after the install. It handles very well with very little to no body roll, almost like its on rails. I got the Basics, I ended up lowering the car another 1/4 to 1/2 inch yesterday and now the front wheels are almost tucked and the rears are getting there. I absolutely love the "raked"(front looks to be lower than the back) look it has now. By far I would give this mod 2 thumbs up, and recommend it to anyone who wants to get suspension work done, granted you pay more but you get what u pay for.

Well it’s actually all the same height really; I lowered the whole car about the same. It’s just how the car naturally sits, or well how mine does anyway. The back is a bit higher but I like the look a lot, it makes it look aggressive
