all i have to say is Ground Control. they have awesome customer service and you can swap out the springs for different rates at a fraction of the cost...think its $70 a set....

you can't order them in custom rates thats a HUGE - in my book i know you can with skunk2s cause i got them i think GC does too.

areospeed products are that good imo

been running my arospeeds for 2years now.

they have been VERY good to me,
rated at 450f 350r,
i've had NO symptoms associated with shitty springs, such as sagging, binding, dont think they've lost much if any springrate.. though its hard to tell.. ride got alot better when I swapped my agx's out for konis, very smooth now.. though really bad potholes/bumps are still gnarly.

oh and the sleeves are still fine, nothing has broken..

only problem i've had was getting a pebble stuck in one of the threads of one of the sleeves, made it hard to adjust, I adjusted it till the pebble popped out though and its fine now.

they are the dual lock kind, I'd say thats more trustworthy than the single, as i've heard of allen keys stripping on those..

basically, if you want 450/350 springs(you can swapem front to back easily too) then these are great, especially for the price, you save like 200 bucks over GC's!!
