That's what she said... Honestly the best thing you could probably do is find someone local who has the same size wheels and tires on a lowered car and ride in it. What is stiff to you may be of no consequence to someone else.

I'm happy with my BMRs, I'd just do slightly less drop if I did it again.

Right now the BMR 1" lowering springs are on sale for 200 bucks, thats for all four corners too. Its truly a personal preference in the end. I've done my share of reading, it goes a long way and there is plenty to read on this forum with a lot of details. I just received my BMR springs today.

I got a complete suspension upgrade from BMR including the 1.2' lowering springs. Cant comment on anything yet as the entire package wont be installed until March 10th. But, will report back once everything is installed.

Hotchkis here. The stance is great and the ride quality is superb. After the springs settled and the bushings were timed, I got a 1.25" drop. Great product!

Hmmm, I love mine. Did you have the bushings timed? I installed the springs and drove it to the alignment shop to have the bushings timed and the car aligned. On the way there I found the ride to be stiff and jittery. Felt great after the work was done.

Sorry you weren't happy, but as others have said, did you time the bushings/ Alignment. Have you done other suspension mods that could affect this?

I would say that given the Volume of Springs we sell and the Feedback I get, that you in in the very small minority of this opinion.
