coil spacers on the rear to keep the spring from compressing where the spacer is.

I just picked up a set and installed on the spot (thanks to Gene)
The traffic is so bad from LA to San Diego so I decided to pull over and rest at Starsbuck and get online!

It raised the rear to a perfectly even with the front now. (the height can be adjust as you slide/move around the spring. The higher it sits on the springs the more height it will raised. Mine sit about 2/3 of the spring. More pictures will come later tonight.
The quality I notice after 40 miles of driving is much smoother. Smoother meaning the car is not as bouncy when you go over those humps/bumps on the freeway at the speed of 50mph or more.
The firmness/stiff is just about the same. Handling, controlling is the same.
I like this product a lot. I'm just hoping it will last longer than the 1 year warranty period. The price is high but it is the only thing available on the market.
In summary, I like how it makes my car look and the ride is smoother.
