I run them on my 219/235 .607/.621 113LSA without a problem. Theres nothing wrong with them. IF there still new and you just want duals, send them back and get duals.... Comps 26925s or 26926s work great.

Bought em from a member on here said they had no more than 500 miles on them, only reason i was thinking duals is because there stronger and i didnt think the 918s would hold. Sounds like ill be ok ill run this set till there done then get duals guess

I ran 918's with the 233/239 for about 8K-10K miles without issues and then sold the car. They're rated to .600" lift but used to be rated at .625" lift - you should be fine if they truely only have 500 miles on them. I would want to know what cam they were on previously though.

i'd be interested in the 918 springs if you don't want to run them.
pm me some pix or email.
thanks,

You will more than likely be fine. There are plenty of guys who run those springs with that cam. If it were me, I would upgrade to a better spring but if you have them and that's all your budget allows for then run them. Be sure to check seat pressures on the springs periodically to ensure you don't run into an issue down the road.
