What!! That's crazy. I heard a guy on here that blew all 4 but that was after putting the sport lines on which are a half inch shorter.

Swift Springs are reported to work well with stock stocks. They don't lower as much, but they lower functionally.

Yeah I really want the full package when I do it now. at first I was saying just for looks but I will kick myself if I go cheap and don't get new struts and springs instead of just springs

The stock struts are not meant to be compressed all the time like with lowering springs but good quality ones like koni are built for it and only cost $400 a set so it's as close to coil overs as you can get and still have a smooth ride down the road... As far as I know if there is other cool stuff out there let me know please!

They say the struts should be here tomorrow at 1pm. In the mean time, I'm driving a 2012 slushbox xB...feels like driving a bus (albeit one that has gone through the wash).
