Racing beat sags although they claim the compression rate is still good when you send a questionable spring to them. It seems to be a racing beat/bilstein combo issue. Other shocks do not seem to have the issue.

I went through a whole warranty issue with both racing beat and bilstein and no one fessed up to what caused marked drop in ride over the course of a year. Radkins dropped so much his wheel ate the fender liner. The drop is worse on the drivers side


The issue has been well documented in the suspension section. The problem is worse for guys who track. About 5 of us switched to HR springs due to the problem.
