Default Progress Technology Sport Springs

has anyone installed the Progress Technology Sport Springs with rising progressive spring rates? They lower the front 2.2 inches and the rear about the same amount and I was just wondering how the harsh is the ride with these installed?

I was told they lowered the car a little less than 2" and kept the rake, so I ordered them and had them installed. They lowered the front and rear more than 2" - too low for me - eliminated the rake and made the ride noticeably harsher. I have returned them and now have H&R springs on - lowered about 1 1/4" and improved the ride noticeably; also restored more of the rake. I'm much happier with the H&Rs.

Thanks for the information. do you have a website address for the H&Rs? What was the cost?
