Default Qa1 R series shocks?

So I`m looking at getting Qa1 R series shocks all the way around the front will have 300lb springs. This is gonna go on my 2002 WS6 TA. I`m looking for handling and driveability. My shocks are pretty much tost but I`m confused as to whether these would be good fro Road race or what? Should I get them or just go with bilsteins? I wanna keep my stock ws6 springs but if I do the Qa1 I go with the 300lb ones, help!

^ Yup.
Search around, the QA1s are drag shocks, although claimed to be "good all around" shocks by the manufacturer.
With something like Koni SA you will be driving a whole different car.

Hello
Like mentioned above for that particular spring (R Series). They are already valved for the 275lbs spring only. If you are looking for more a street and strip set up you will have to go with the F series. Below is a link to show you what all UMI Performance has to offer!

If you have any other questions feel free to ask and I will be more than glad to help!
Thanks
Brad
