Nice. How do the springs feel? Firmer? Do you have drive select?

Springs feel firmer, and the car seems more planted to the ground. I do have drive select to and have had no problems with it since i put the springs on.

actually thats not true, the sidewall difference between these tires and stock tires is 7 MILLIMETERS, so the same pothole that will blow out the 20s will more then likely blow out the 19s.

PLUS, this will be my second year running 275/30s and i live in a area with the worst roads you can imagine and I had no issues. AND I have the tire/wheel protection through my dealer, so if i do blow out a tire, they will replace it(I used it twice already with my snow tires due to a nail in them) and they will cover the aftermarket tire because it is cheaper then the oem tire.
