They look good to me, and obviously they are very attractively priced...

All I can say is the the Eibachs on my LT car rode so bad I took them off and bought a set of used stockers and replaced the Eibachs.....

The first springs you posted have a horribly high rear spring rate of 250lbs. Just save up your money and get some Strano springs (www.stranoparts.com), it will definitely be worth it, great stance and great handling. I replied to your post in the newbie section, since you don't need to buy a corvette servo anymore you can use that money towards new springs.

The prokits are a little better and ride is very subjective.......

The first set, regardless of the unknown quality factor, have completely screwed up spring rates. The fronts are about 100 lbs/in. too soft and the rear about 100 lbs/in too stiff. I definitely wouldn't buy them. The second set may be ok (although they are way too low for most people) but they have no published rates and after seeing the rates from the first set I would be a little hesitant. It's always nice to save a little money but I wouldn't chance it on springs...

So has anyone actually tried ebay springs or do we all go off word of mouth?

Try them if you don't care about (possibly) wasting $100 and tell us how it goes.

Lowering springs is one place I would not skimp on, the springs are really going to determine a big portion of how the car rides. Do it once and do it right and get some good quality springs. There are springs out there that come with lifetime warranties like our BMR lowering springs.

TORK?

Take it from my experience, go with what is proven.

My car came with some generic springs on it and it rides terrible. Over bumps, the whole car shudders and makes loud bumping, straining, and squeaking noises. It's like I can feel every crack in the road transmitted through the car and into my seat.

As I said earlier, the spring rates are much too soft in the front and much too stiff in the rear. Those springs will not ride well, if the springs rates they list are correct. I love the blue color though. haha

Our rates are 550 linear fronts and 160 linear working rate rears. These are 450 front and 250 rears. Our springs are proven to lower the car to a desireable level and make the car ride extremly comfortable.

We aren't using word of mouth, we are using common sense. If they make half a dozen grammatical errors in about the same amount of lines of text, you think they researched spring rates? Doubtful.
