H&R race question

Any complaints? How long would i be able to use them before my shocks blow out? Do they cost the same as the sport springs?

This is a pretty aggressive spring setup so if you are looking for a very low drop and stiff ride, they are the way to go. I would replace the shocks at the same time to avoid paying double labor charges by doing the shocks again at a later date. How long the shocks last depends on your driving characteristics, current mileage and road conditions.

yes, you should change your shock along with the spring together!!
