bottom line i would recommend it for the avid user not for track use.
I agree they are soft in the rear but then I don't have them fully stiff. With the street and dirt road going home is makes somewhat unpleasent... Pretty fluent on any other street near Katy-Houston area. For the next part sways, and strut brace.

ive had it all over the board. like ive said prior they arent a bad street shock or a street setup but they could use a stiffer spring out back. usually front drivers run a little bit stiffer out back and a bit softer up front where as AWD is stiffer up front then out back

The quality seems really nice for the price, the only complaint i have is the rear is way too soft. I have all rings on and low as possible, nearly tucking tire, about 1/4 from tucking and i bottom out a lot in the rear. I have the fronts on 9 and the rears on 7. I wouldnt reccomend them to anyone until they come with a stiffer spring in the rear. I will be ordering different springs for the rears and have the shock revalved.

17" XXR 527's +25 offset.

Hey those are the 8.25 wide right. I haven't seen anyone with the 9.75 wide on the four lugs.

Finally got to re-adjusting the rear and its better now then before. But I have to say doing this coilovers will got some looks. I even had to thank the guy in the G5 last week for his "Thats a good job" complement-while driving windows done-.

These look great on the coupe. But some people think I should try to run the 9.75 wide on mine cause I will make it look more agressive. But I feel like it would poke a lot and ride like crap.

Don't do it. 9 inch wheels on rolled and pulled fenders look great with the right backspacing. But 9.75 is just too much period. It won't look good trust me I had 9.75 XXR's and bolted them up and they stuck out way bad. Bad as in looking retarded, not bad like in really cool.

See this is what I was afraid of. I guess I'll figure out what to go with for later. Although, I like to go with a 9in wide so I'll keep looking.

yea the 8.25 with the +25 offset make my car sit really really flush, i have rubbing issues too. I cant imagine have 9.75 on there, it would look stupid. If the 8.25 isnt enough you can always buy spacers. Also my fenders are rolled and they still rub pretty good.
