Marty, I installed those springs several months ago. The lower the car
slightly (claimed 1"). They also aid is a more controlled ride. I like
them very much. I would also recommend upgrading your shocks at the
same time. I installed a set of Carrera shocks, but both Koni and Spax
are excellent alternatives. I've not touched the rear lever shocks, but
they need to be done and you will notice them to be too weak if these
steps are taken.
While there are some who find the change in ride quality to be too
harsh, I find it to be a great improvement; if anything I might want
even stiffer springs and shocks, but I don't think you will be
dissatisfied in the least with your purchase.

Subject: TRF Uprated Springs
Hi everyone,
I just purchased the uprated rear springs from TRF. I have a question
about
ride height. I realize these springs are shorter than stock. Will that
in
effect lower the ride height of the car or will the car sit at the same
height
because of the higher rating?
For those of you that have these rear springs, what are your experiences
with
them as far as handling? I'm going to replace the trailing arm bushings
with
the uprated rubber ones.
Thanks (especially Dick Taylor for the response on the prior posts!)
