awesome freaking thread right here!

myself having purchased the skunks several weeks ago, and as of yet to be installed, was curious how well my choice stacked up against the rest. i decided on skunk2 for the sake of the level of balance in drop between front and rear. all my hondas before have been slammed, so comfort doesn't really bother me. i just don't like my wheels to tuck (anymore) cuz now with my first brand new car i'd prefer to try and keep the closest to stock feel as possible while at the same time greatly reducing body roll as much i can with out sacraficing smoothness. looking at my cars stock height, i felt that a 1"/1.5" front and rear drop is just enough to get the wheel well flush with the wheel cuz of the higher gap in the front due to the extra weight in that end. with the skunks, that's what i get. i also wanted stiffer rates in the rear cuz i notice if you put anything (and i mean anything) in the back, the stock set up sags soo much! so based on the info posted up, i feel extremely satisfied in my choice and can't wait to get em on soon enough! i'm really glad too, that the front rates aren't too stiff nor too soft to compensate again for the more weight up front giving you great balance between comfort and handling. all those factors coupled together along with the price point, imo, put the skunks over the top, at least for me. just my two bits... i'd say that they are the all around best bang for your buck.
