Default Megan Racing Springs, What do ya think?

Just bought some MR springs on Amazon (horsepowerfreaks.com) for $108. Just wondering if anyone has these and what you guys think of them.

The fitment was terrible, rear springs didn't work with struts. I'm getting a new set from the company hopefully soon. When all was said and done, the car was raised .5" from stock....

What kind of struts?

I paired my megan springs with Tokico HP and fitment wasn't perfect as well but I made it work. The ride quality is very good....I am pleased with this set-up paired up with Hotchkis sways.

If you want good springs go with Roadmagnets. These were used on the Team Lexus racecar and I have five or six friends with them and they love them. If you want to be safe go with an aftermarket strut, especially if you have a good amount of miles on the stock ones.

Coils are the way to go. Springs are ok, but you cant beat adjustable coilovers

With roadmagnets, how much does it lower the car and are these good for everyday driving? Who sells these and how much?
