Rep Power: 281 progress springs..again
yes, i already did a search, and wanted to get more opinions, and ask some questions.
currently on h&r sports with 17" and the drop is ok, i have oem kit, coming off from a wwg5, and want my car lower. might pick up a pair of progress sports, and after reading reviews, there is mixed "people like it" "people REALLY hate it".
i was looking at other members rides who posted in threads related to progress, can anyone show more pics? a lot of them varied? pref. on 17"
i have 2 10" in a banpass box, and ocassionally carry my hockey equip in the trunk?..will it really sag bad in the rear? will i notice a lower drop w/ these compared to h&r..or is it going to be minimal that it's not worth my time/money
thanks.

Rep Power: 0 Don't know about the springs alone but I've got the coilover kit from progress and it's pretty nice. The handling is much less sloppy now and understeer situations can be easily corrected by letting just slightly off the gas. None of that bouncing I had at the limit with the stock shocks & springs.

Rep Power: 281 just got them installed, but are sitting the same as my H&R's
is it because they just got installed and need to settle in still? (they were used for a year or so from prev. owner) so i thought they should be settled already ??
hopefully it settles in more/faster =)
how long did it take to settle for those members who had progress springs?
also, when getting installed, the guys said my front/passanger shock is blown, wut shocks should i be looking at
kyb? tokico?
*from the search i did, seems tokico is a good route
