                  How do you like them?

                  I sent them email before I bought my GC setup and got nothing other than "they're awesome bro" and no reply when I asked technical questions.

                      I originally had Joms on my car so the comparison is obviously light years from each other. But despite having 14/18k rates.. They're not that bad except that when there's a transition on the freeway that's downgrade expect to be dropped. I have little to no droop front and rear. So people behind me are probably wtf? This car just bounced off of the freeway and the. Back down. That's when it's harsh. Given I'm going 70-80. It feels like a rally car on rails. Lol. I know they're awesome bro doesn't really convince anybody but I took the gamble and it was well worth it. The threaded shock bodies are awesome since my height doesn't affect spring compression. Yes these are revalved Fortune 500 or 510 series with swift springs. They are digressive and non linear spring rates. I can't explain all the science involved since I'm not that savvy so all I can say is.. They're pretty awesome bro. I wish I could say I was affiliated so I can try out those air cup kits for free.. But I'm not. Lol
