Those are just the springs? How much did you spend on that?

$235.00. But I needed an open ended socket wrench and T-handle Allen wrench for the top of the struts.

How's the ride on it after lowering it? Stiffer? I don't want it to be harsher than it already is.

Not trying to thread jack. I hope the OP is interested...


Yes the ride is slightly stiffer, but the springs settle slightly and get slightly softer over the first several days. After a few day you won't even notice. "Stoked you will be" yoda voice.
