Ground Control's come with Eibach race springs (ERS) which are used in basically every type of motor sport's. These springs do not sag and aren't you typical lowering spring.

Also you can order custom spring rates from Ground Control in 25 lbs increments and that will decide wheather or not your ride is stiff or soft.

tiens are awesome but the only ones id get would be the ra's so id have to endure a few months of ramen and rice to afford them and then the several month wait for them to get imported. i like the spring rate choices of the ground controls and the fact that they come with eibach springs which have a lifetime warantee under race abuse. im still giving the skunks some consideration since they seem to have a high spring rate but at the same time are streetable. sigh, decisions.

the whole line of teins are great. you would only settle for the ra's? but your settling for a coilover that isnt matched to a specific strut. yea ok. pick up a set of tein basics and im sure theyll out perform your ghetto combo. tein basics are 650 shipped. youre probably paying just as much for your combo.
