I am wondering if anyone here has them on their SC and had any comments on them. Pics of how low you are too would be nice. I think I am going to order parts in the next few days.
It says a good range on these coilovers is 1" - 1.5" lowering. That means about 2" on the SC. So they should give me a decent range with great performance and ride.
If no one knows what I talking about this is the link

Let me know what you think of them!

I'm using Drew's cheaper recommendation for the sc300; supra TT oem spring with Bilsten HD (supra TT model) shocks using upper c-clip groove on the rear shocks and lower c-clip groove for the front shocks. I'll report my findings on my website after I've put some more mileage on them. If the springs don't suffice, I'll get the bilstein sleeves and newer Hypercoil OBD springs

300 is what they can do. 250 is below their standards. I will be okay with them. A few people have used the 300's on the rear with no problem. I needed the stiffer rate for my stance in the rear. Anything softer will be rubbing.

dejacky, post some initial findings
I'm really anxious to hear how you like them so far. I have the springs already, just need to find a place with the shocks in stock since shox.com is on backorder.....

everyone is on backorder. I found a barely used set. I did not want to wait til next month.
Also, I got 275 instead of 300 since 300 is on backorder as well!

For what that guy wanted shipped, I could get a new set for $100 more...not worth it to me. I'm going to go ahead and place my order with eshocks sometime this week and then just wait it out.
