just remember that the problem with progressive springs, is that because the rate is constantly changing, the shocks cannot be valved to exactly be compatible with the changing rates... too my knowledge, you're shocks' life may be shortened. Go Coils Go! (just my $0.02)

the only reason im skeptical about coils is because of rust or seizing issues where i live it snows insanely plus with the salt and grime it could ruin the coils quicktime or else i would get in a heart beat.
