going to install the 212lb trick springs up front soon, and my question is. does anyone have pics of them with the stock height and also does anyone have pics of them installed w/ any amount of the spring removed. im thinking of taking off half a coil, 1 coil max.

I have them in the blown car but it probably no where near the same weight... I would drive on them awhile before I cut them because they are gonna settle alot...

guess i got lucky then. didn't have to trim anything off of mine. can't say anything about the quality yet as i've never even driven or raced the car with them yet.

Agreed. I just switched back to a Moog V6 no AC spring, much, much better.
