For the price of the progress spring you really cant beat them. I ran them on my last autox car and loved them.

Do you have any camber issues in the rear of the car with those springs? I know on my galant I had MAJOR issues, but it also slammed the car more than I thought. Not that a galant was exactly made for lowering, but you know.

In any case it looks PERFECT to me as far as wheel gap is concerned.

Also I'd like to add that your picture is really pretty rad with the reflection in the puddle in the foreground.

Lookin' Good!

I had my progress springs on for 3 years on my galant and had no issues as far as the quality and craftsmanship. My only hesitation now for the cobalt is that there is not really a strut replacement that doesn't require hacking away at the OEM parts.

Oh well. I still have my warranty for a couple of years so that should be plenty of time.

Those two pictures of the RL are nice. Those progress springs really give just the right look.

I don't really think I would call the koni's a hack but I do see why that can scare some people away.

Fair enough, they aren't a hack job per se, I think I'm just not up to the task of modifying the stock parts too much. But that's my problem. More power to anyone who does it.
