those are just there to stiffen up the front end and back as well...and thats all.
lowering the ridehight has nothing to do with it, although it does help a lot in cornering and whatnot for sure, and it would help, but i dont see why you would assume that he will lower it right after installing these, and yeah i know we all want to have lowered boxsters, but still

Yes, that's why most people add these after or while doing a lowered suspension, for added suport. That was my reason for asking. You said it too.

well yea, i know that, and so do you, but adding them without lowering will stiffen it up already, as others said, and noticed

but even when you lower it there is still more work to do if you wish, there always is

Ya Ya! We can install hydraulics, lights on the roll-bar, spinners, fuzzy dice, a tow winch, paint the car camo, you know... incorporate EVERY stereotype into the cars and start a new trend! Let me see if I can create an image of this....
