My ex-C32 had Renntechs which were very good. My second C32 is set up perfectly. I used Vogtland fronts and left the rear alone. These are linear vs. progressive springs and within the valving of the stock shocks. The only modification to the rear suspension was an H & R rear anti-sway bar set on stiff. Together with Fuzion ZRi in stock sizes, I feel this is the perfect modification for the suspension. I like this better then the Renntechs.

How much are the Renntechs as opposed to the H&R's, which are below $300 if I remember correctly.
