Default Would just getting HAL's up front help any?

Opinions? I have the cash for the front set, but not really the rear... so would just getting the fronts help any at the track?

The fronts combined with the Hal springs make for a very effective weight transfering combo. They are more important than the rears.

I only have the fronts w/ springs. They consistently brought my 60' down from low 1.6's to mid-high 1.5's. <img src="gr_grin.gif" border="0">
