If you have them on your car like you say...well then...give us a report on how your car handles with these springs.
Thanks!

Especially important to know, considering Porsche does not recommend use of lowering springs with PASM shocks - seems they cause premature failure of the shocks due to shorter shock travel.

I for one, would have to have a VERY good reason to use aftermarket lowering springs...

If you want to improve the ride/handling and lower the car the real way is to get the Bilstein PSS9's. Springs will lower the car but not improve ride/handling and ultimatly ruin your shocks.
