I've had quite a few cars with suspension mods and this one feels more like OEM than any of the others. It's very comfortable. Not harsh or uncomfortable in the least.

They'd know how much to cut,so those front springs would still fit. Did you get thinner pads for the rears yet?Where will you go for installation? I recommend RMP (427 and steeles)
