How is everyones ride holding up and handling now? Did the springs ever crack or mess up? Did your struts last a while or did they go out. Most importantly: Did this screw up your tire wear. I dont want to spend $800.00 on new yokohamas instead I would put that towards a lowering kit.

How are the clamps holding up in the front?

I have to confess about 2 years ago I heated my front springs up and it was the worst mistake ever. I was bouncing all over the place (mainly because I only had it done to the front because the gap is horrible) so I am wondering if this screwed up anyones ride.

Thanks





Heating is worse than cutting, because you reduce travel without increasing spring rate.
