If you want a better ride height, but want the car to ride essentially like stock then I would recommend them. There was no transformation of the car like in my boxster when I switched to biksteins and hr bars and springs. I hope that helped.
Thanks! All input is appreciated. What was your decision driver? I see these FSDs are highly thought of on the Renlist. Also your comments tend to mirror the Tire Rack test concerning the slalom, Where they initially thought the car too soft and comfy until they timed them and they outperformed the Sport on the soft setting. I think the explanation was the FSD maintained tire contact much better.
