Currently they are the best std shape spring. The current second generation is by far the best.

I was down off the net for a while due to computer problems so maybe I missed you.

For track driving, I think GC's and AGX's are much better or if you can afford it, AD, Truechoice or Shigspeed's are even better.

the reason i ask is because i ran across a guy with a set of them for the b13. for 125! inexpensive is good because i'm in college, have a daughter (i just found out a month ago!) and am living on my own. i just want to know if these springs are worth it or are they just a piece of you know what. anyway, thanks again~Mike

I got the first generation one's that Rick Christ is selling for $125 a set on the way to me right now. I almost went with the second generation one's that are going for $240, but couldn't pass up the $125 price and was worried the 2nd generation one's would be too stiff for a daily driver. I have heard nothing but good things about these springs. I also have some KYB AGX's on the way to install with them.

so hows the fender gap looking after the install. The only reason i am thinking about coilovers is because the fender gap can be perfect to my liking. So about how much gap is left on the car?? THANKS FOR EVERYTHING
