the drop in front is significant, but the drop in the rear is minor and really doesn't change the look much - just my 2cents.........

We want to keep the vehicle leveled as well. This is very important to the functionality of the OEM shocks. Any lower would surely limit the performance of the OEM shocks.

Looks like 04.5 and newer shocks will be needed for these, they will wear out the stock shocks pretty quick. Just order D-Specs when you buy these and do it right the first. Later on tonight i'll run the numbers on the suspension frequency, i think it will be around 1.7Hz front and rear.

I have a feeling they will be a great setup for most and would love to test a set out.

We have tested that everything in that range as well. We looked into a lot of the factors that really help in performance of the OEM shocks. More importantly, we put a lot of emphasis on the longevity of the springs and OEM shock combination.
