Question B&G springs??

Anybody have these??
Are they any good??
Feedback welcome.
I am going to upgrade my suspension this spring, by using tokico blues with some lowering springs.
i saw that the b&g springs lowered the car the most but was curious about others opinions on what springs are the best.

I have them with tokico illumina shox.

I like them alot, pretty stiff, but thats what I was looking for.

ride height was only slightly higher than I wanted, here's a pic, this is when I first put them on, they have settled slightly, and I think it looks good, nicely balanced.

Plus with 225s on the back vs the 205s it should fill allittle better,
I dont know if the track is wider in the front, when you look down the at the fenders, the fronts stick out slightly and the rears are inward a bit.




handling is excellent, with the shox all at 4 the car is on rails, very balanced.
