Anyone bought Litchfield springs? (outside of UK) - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

As the title says, has anyone bought litchfield springs outside of the UK? According to their website there's also the "fast road alignment setting" which comes with the fitting... wondering how much I'll be missing out on if I just get the springs and have a local shop do the alignment.

Also a review of the springs would be welcomed. TIA!

I'm fairly confident that Litchfield would tell you their alignment details as an overseas customer.

I'm happy with mine, car drives really well and without much of a compromise in comfort. I have used them on track and was suitably happy with the way they handled, but I cannot directly compare them to a stock setup.

I let someone else drive recently and only told them about the springs afterwards and they said they couldn't tell. I think they are a touch harder than OEM but not by a huge amount. Here's how my GT86 looks afterward:

Oh, I have the specs for alignment should they be required, but I'd be surprised if they weren't given to overseas customers as said above.
