new info on these springs... i emailed CM to see if the drop had changed and this was their reply. (it doesn't make sense to me but since they said the drop never changed i got them anyways)
"Hi,
No the drop has always been the same, although there was some confusion before wen some customers thought is was 1.5" drop.
Since they thought it was a 1.5" drop thats what they saw. But really it was ALWAYS a .05" drop.
The design came from the engineer that made them from a stock pair. So the design was to make the car still be even front and back.
If the drop was 1.5" the car would not sit level..
It is your call but our design has never changed.
Regards,"

Well, because they are a bit lower than pedders they are also a bit worse in terms of ride and handling. Handling is still about what stock is though, ride is about the same too.
