Gen6 Sprint Springs

Does anybody have any experiences/pics with Gen6 Sprint Springs? I know its a 1.8 drop all around. I also hear these springs continually sag overtime? Hows the ride of these springs? i'm really interested in Spring springs actually, even though the ride + sag is a lot crappier than H&Rs. Thanks for your help.

btw. If I decide to go with spring spring, this will mean my H&R will be for sale

Not only will they sag... they will blow your shocks in no time... might as well go coils if you're going to invest in new springs and shocks

True... that too... if you already scrape going up the drive, lowering will force you to park on the street, and that is a no no

what look are you going for and how much work are you planning on putting in?

if you are going to dump your car to the ground, you can go maybe +30? but you will need to be running a bigger stretch on your tires, plus rolling and pulling, and god help you if you will need to radius it too.

otherwise just stick with the 19s and adjust the camber to a couple of degrees negative.
