im intreiged by these. Never heard of them before though

Would be ideal if their safe and dependable as i could take them off and set my car back to 40mm when i needed to.

should imagine their not too good for the ride though?

they are mant for if your towing and things like that, not really for daily use and i wouldnt fancy driving a car with big metal clamps stopping the coil springs from doing their job properly
