Tanabe DF210 TDF185 lowering springs

I ordered the Tanabe DF210 TDF185 lowering springs designed for the GK5 Fit. From their site it states the F/R drop is 1.5/2.0, pretty significant stance for lower center of gravity and less body roll, practical, not slammed. I will be getting them installed sometime this week or next, after I get new Michelin Premier A/S 185/55r16 tires (OEM size) to replace the junk Firestone's.
The Tanabe brand, IMO, is the best coil spring company in the world, in case you didn't know, DF210, "210" refers to the 2100n/m tensile strength of the coil spring, the strongest in the world, manufactured in Japan. They ONLY use high tensile strength steel in the entire composition of the spring, no other elements that could compromise the quality, durability, and performance. Be assured that the Tenabe springs are the best choice for your Honda Fit, regarding the spring rate strength that will prevent the stock shocks from wearing out due to the shortened travel.

Actually no, haha, but if my expectations of the product are met or exceeded I may consider a sales rep position for Tanabe USA and I have a great resume introduction, my original post, lol.
