Just wanted to know if anybody out there have these struts on an svt and if so do you like how the feel. Also what springs do you use with them.

Not recommended with anything other than stock springs.

I used them with H&R springs and they were fabulous. I wasnt in the market for Koni's like everyone suggests. However, the KYB's have lasted well over 2 years, (changed my suspension, and sold that setup to someone else) and had no noticeble dampening loss. I know two years isn't that long, but they've been just fine. I'm sure they won't last as long as Koni's though..
I have Koni's now with the GC coil overs, and I love em! my $.02

OEM replacement for non-SVT's, from what I gather.

All the usual cautions against using them with aftermarket springs apply.

(Anecdotal evidence notwithstanding.)

IMHO, you'd be better off replacing with OEM SVT struts from Bill Jenkins.
