Many improvements were made, better quality components were used, that means price in materials increases, also more is put into customer service and other benefits for the customer directly. We feel good about the value of the product even with some increases in price.

How low is your car? Is this the first aftermarket suspension you've been on? What size tires?

ive had my type I's on my ep3 for almost a year now. they are stiff, but when i called, they stated they were a little stiff compared to others. i personally love my type I's and will probably upgrade to the type II's with swift springs within the next year (hook it up preston)
