went out today on a fast road

So Ive had the suspension and the coilovers in for a few days now, and today had the chance to get out on a fast road. I took the car up near 100 and it glides like glass. I used to get a mild shake/shimmy above 70. Happy to report that is gone.
I replaced everything in the front suspension and steering, (rear suspension was done last year, because I had a low speed clunk.) but haven't had the alignment done yet.
I think Im pretty close just using my tape measure, and today is proof.

After 3 months how's it feel? A good solution for a daily driven car that also doubles as fun car in the canyons every now and again?

dont think I could be happier. these are tight and reduce bodyroll in hard turns while very civilized over the bumps. I dropped the car about an inch and havent experienced any issues over the speedbumps in my neighborhood either. Cant compare these to other coilovers without trying them. that said, no regrets. They are also really good looking, when i show the car off, folks comment on them. :+)
