No rubbing or anything wrong with it. I drive high and park slammed but the ride quality sucks when I drive it.. It might just be me because I'm used to coil overs lol

the main thing that scares me about bags is them ripping, messing up, or etc. while your driving, then your stuck SLAMMED on the side of the freeway!

i was waiting on somebody to say that.. but then again, some people like it... bags over oem strut rode better than stance alone but oem blew too easy and the stiffness of stance is good.... so i will be combining them soon. =X

thanks for all the advice, i actually ended up getting some tanabe df210s for the price and relatively good drop. but when i went to put them on i got the wonderful suprise of completely wrecked struts, even though my ride was pretty damn smooth. rather than paying 450 for new struts and renting another spring compressor i just decided to get some megan ez street coilovers and sell the tanabes (theyre brand new still, PM me if youre interested). the megans were a decent price, and everyone that actually has them talks them up quite a lot. then after i ordered them i got an email saying they had to ship from asia and it would take 4-5 more weeks until then heres the df210s and a shot of my blacked out lights
