Default Complete bilstein lowering kit

I have a bilstein bts-7501 lowering kit for f-bodies. It comes completed with shocks and springs.Used it for about 5k miles, the car didnt get driven much. It lowers the car about 1.5" even though they claim about 3/4". Perfect for daily drivers that wanna corner and takes the curves at high speed, but not bottom out and ruin their body. Im going to drag setup so I dont need these anymore. New the kit was around $700. Asking $375 shipped, the box is kinda big and heavy. I have them with the mounts already assembled for the front so you just bolt them in. PM me.

how did you like the ride? I want to lower the car, but still want to have a comfortable ride. I dont want the springs to be too stiff, would you recommend it?

They're perfect for you. These aren't like most "lowering" springs. This is a "tuned suspension", hence the name bts. Its more of a performance handling kit than your typical lowering kit. I went with this kit for the handling aspect and the conservative drop for that reason myself. Its not too stiff at all. Like I said, they're perfect for a daily driver that likes to drive.
