I give Progress springs a 4 for ride quality also. I would only give the stock springs a 3. The car handles so much better with the Progress springs.
You should put "SSC/Canuck Motorsports". They are the same. I had the Canuck springs on for a week. I give them a 3. They are too soft in my opinion.

may i just suggest you also include the stance for each springs? (like flat or lower in rear/ higher in front and vice versa?)..just a thought... some ppl like the stock stance but lower..some like it lower in the back than the front some like it dead flat

You can get a good idea what the springs are going to do to the stance by comparing the front/rear drop heights

this is ride comfort compared to stock correct? because if ss/sc on a ls/ lt is a 4 for ride quality..then what do you call my sisters audi a4? because my cobalt feels pretty stiff..cause her audi u don't even feel any bumps

Don't forget the Ksport Springs and the #1 Cobalt-Addiction Springs
Just thought I would add to the list ReignSS I don't know the specs on how much drop they offer
