Talk to Alex, he has them, and I think he is using them with his stock struts and has pretty nice ride quality.

what did i just say? :roll:

i do not see one thing wrong with sprint springs....its lowered evenly, the ride is perfect, and its biggest drop you can get. My stock struts have lasted over a year with them.....not one problem!

i don't see what the big deal is about sprint springs.....if someone actually has them, and has a reason for why they suck, other then "they suck!" i would like to hear it.

That depends how often you drive it, the conditon of the road you're driving on, etc.

But since you still got stock struts I think they'll blow before your springs start to sag cuz it's the struts that's suffering now.
