I'll get those before and after pics to you garm, have a couple of closeups and of right after the install. I'll take a new one tomorrow to show after a couple of days so that it's a little closer to the realistic drop.
I definately say order some more but I really do think they are a bit stiff (not that bad though) so I'd make sure that people know what the spring rate is so they don't wind up with something unwanted because they can't jive with the stiffer ride. They definately are not some comfort luxury spring but they are not all that bad at all. Yeah when you hit a good size bump, you will feel it and hear it for sure but it's tolerable and it's to be expected anyways for when installing stiffer lowering springs. And I'm not sure if all springs are this way but the AOE's definately have taken a few days to get decent in terms of starting to settle in. The first day with them on, the ride was not so good. Very bouncy and soft feeling. Second day was a bit better and today (3rd day) they felt stiffer as compared to being bouncy and soft. Just a heads up that for me anways with these springs, be sure to give them a few days to start feeling good. I'd imagine since it's only been 3 days, there still is a little more time needed for them to completely settle in and feel there best. |

Yea, a lot of posters say there springs take weeks to settle so I'd def give them more than three days before you wanna get rid of them. They might settle in and grow on you.

Its way better than stock.. Me and my friend were really opening it up earlier on turns and the car handled really well... driving straight though the car feels like stock and it doesnt feel like im getting slapped around on the freeway at high speeds... Overall im happy with them and they havent even settled in yet
