Default just ordered bilstein hds...how do you guys like them?

just ordered some new shocks for the ss. its an m6 lowered 1.5 inches doesnt see the roadcourse but sees some spirited driving. once i get my new rear end in it will be run down the strip a few times a year. did i get a half decent shock for what i plan on doing? the kyb adjustables suck so i needed something at least a little better.

I liked them on my V6, but that was with stock springs.

I mean, shouldn't this question be asked before you purchase a product? I'm not sure how the shocks will work with lowered springs, however.

I'm using bilsteins HD's and strano springs and I really like the way the car rides and handles now. I read a lot about the SLP's and HD's and it seems like they are the same shocks now.
