Default Skunk2 review

Been a couple of weeks since I installed the Skunk2 springs and must say I'm really impressed. The ride is almost like stock (girlfriend hasn't noticed the change ) and the drop is nice enough but not too low, I dont scrape on speed bumps nor hit curbs with the front lip. Minimal bumpsteer.

Just a little review of the springs - know there's a lot of debate on here about springs.

Pics....

How much are they? Hard to fit?

Can you get a full side pic?

Cheers.

I dont think people are afraid of dropping them, its just how you define dropping properly whatever that may be and your usage.

Are you sure thats been lowered???

Thats the kind of lowering you want, no bump stop kits or drive shaft spacers for you

Just dont forget to get your geo done
