i think these JUST came out, like now. lol. so the only people who know the ride quality is ARK
ARK GT-F(ront)
ARK GT-R(ear)

I've been riding on these for about 6 months already. They have been out for a long time. No one ever listens because everyone is riding on that pedder tip. I think they are great. If you have msr 045 wheels you have to roll your rear fender back further or you will rip your tires straight up.



Pedder's are probably better performing and daily driving but ARK are better looking as they're a more extreme drop. I opted for these because i refused to pay more than 200 for springs. I ride with these with no problem in the winter as-well.

Will not be a problem with stock wheel set up.
In this case rolling fenders would be an option, not a must.

All PM's Sent. 2 gone.
Supplies very limited at this point.

With stock TC wheels there's absolutely no problems whatsoever. I have giant ass blizzak tires wrapped around them and they've never rubbed once.

wow... this already posted? I was just looking at these springs on your website. I'm not going to Tein's S Tech springs because I have higher doubts on them with a softer rate. Looking for springs that will no coil bind over time. Just looking for a different brand to be differentiate from the others. Driving a 09 Turbocharged if you are wondering. As long they are not Made in China, I don't have to kill nobody.

If anyone that has these wants to measure from the gound to the fender for reference that would be awesome. Front and Rear if possible.
