The $55 price tag alone should answer the question... ask the seller what the spring rates are...they usually have no clue how to answer that...

I still say the best possible improvement you can make to a car is drill holes in the rotors.

Tell your friend if he wants an awesome suspension setup like that, he should just cut his springs for free. Maybe a 4" drop, it'll be mad tight yo!

Why drill when you can get fake ones at Autozone!
