I had no idea Willow Springs was so bumpy... With the massive rubber mounts gone I can now feel every bump on the track. Steering effort has been reduced, which is a really good thing with no power steering and 10" wide slicks, and you can really feel the shocks and springs hard at work.

I would not recommend these for the casual "street" guys, it could make your daily drive a bit more abusive depending on things like your spring rates and tire profile, but this is an autocross/track must have.

Has the grip of the front end improved at all?
