Hey I had Progress springs with the tokico blues, and let me tell you it sucked.

I cut more then half the bumpstop and everything was installed properly and every little bump in road i hit, it would SLAM, and the shock would bash into my shock tower.

yeah bad. it had NO travel.

I have full coilovers now and I almost have the same problem

Talk about lame.

Ok i bought the eibach sportline springs and am in the process of getting the tokico blues. I have heard many good things about this setup. It is a good ride weight but a little stiff...but springs will do something for your drop..these springs drop 1.4 in...they is huge so im not really sure what your talking about when you say springs wont do **** to your drop?
