So how do they ride? Have you tried other springs before? How do they compare?

Looks good

Hey will you know that you dont need to remove the entire upper strut mount like you did , and you don't need a spring compressor either , lol , for the next time if there ever is a next time.

right now the bottom of the body kit sits at about 5 1/2" off the ground so what is that
about an inch right now?

and I believe the specs call for a 55mm drop so I would think overall its gonna be about a 1 and a half inch drop...
