I bought mine from Tirerack,

Fastest shipping, and reliable dealer across the nation.

I think I picked mine for just around $310 including shipping.

how is Gembella vs. Cargraphics vs. H&R springs?
since they are all made by h&R. are they just rated a bit differently with stiffness?
Curious to know. Also are the drops in all of them compareable?

H&R won't tell you anything. They won't even disclose who they happen to private label for. I asked about spring rates - they wouldn't tell me jack.

I'm interested in these springs as well. Not to highjack thread but can someone tell me what I should expect to pay my local dealer to install them (so I understand my all in cost). Thanks,
