I've had them on my LS for a year now and they are awesome. They have a lifetime warranty so I'm not worried. Great springs for the price (125.00)

I've also had them for about 4 years now. No problems. No sagging, holds up well to the power I'm putting out, as well as the "spirited driving" I put them through.

I have a reason why they suck.. my friend put them on his older teg to replace the Intrax (these suck too) that the previous owner put on... the sprints dropped lower than advertised and sagged over time and the ride was really bumpy.. he thought it was blown shocks.. so he changed the shocks and it didn't help much...

i had the 2.25" drop on my car for like 4 years.. since i got them for free.. no complaints from me.. they ride a lil too soft for my likes.. car's all roly pollie.. but at least my grandma didn't complain when i had them on my car..

i've upgraded since then(adjustable shocks/coilovers).. car handles better.. but i'm still not satisfied... teins feel soo much better..

very happy with my sprints, have them on koni struts, adjusted the strut to match the spring rate and think they are great. Michigan roads suck and these have held up on both my tegs
