Default There are people that installed GTs before the group buy too you know.

So far, I have nothing but good things to say and from what I've read, so does everyone else who has it.

Default Yeah, but I only care about the Group Buy guys ... just kidding ... the guys

who have just put them on may have a better "back to back" prospective as to the difference over stock than say, someone who had had them on for a while ???

Just a thought ...

Default Got mine installed last week, f-ing love them, except for the exceptionally harsh ride

Lowered the car about 1-1/4", don't know how much it has settled since, thinking I can lower the back a little more. The ride is really really rough, especially when combined with Michigan ****-*** roads and my 18s i'm running.

But, the good news: car has little to no body roll, it has been almost completely eliminated. Hoepfully once I get some H-sport front and rear sways, the car w/ handle perfect. But I'm still getting use to the ride, I feel like I'm in a rollercoaster half the time.

I've also noticed that unlike what others have said about their GT's, mine seem to have a pretty bad POGO effect, or maybe its just me or this ****ty roads, not sure yet

I don't want to drive your car ... I want to install your GT's on mine!

Default Are you sure exceptionally harsh is how you'd describe the ride?

Because that makes them sound like one of the roughest riding suspensions available.
