I have them. Pleased so far, the ride is very close to stock. Someone else said they ride similar to the stock sport suspension. I could stand a little more drop in the front but they still make a big improvement in appearance and don't have any rubbing, bottoming out, scraping issues.

i agree. i have the h-techs and they ride like my stock sport suspension. got them mainly to reduce the wheel gaps after getting 19's. car looks & handles great...very practical for my everyday use.
