HKS Drag Coilovers

I was wondering if anyone has a set orf them on a FD. Anyone know how they ride hks says they are not recomended for the street but im not sure why. So i was wondering if i could get some feedback from someone who has ridden in a car with them or has them on there car. I know that theyarent for handling but does it destroy the driving of the car? And is it worth it for the straightline running which is what im built for.
Thanks in advance.

We installed them on a customers car and I had a chance to drive it. I couldnt tell much of a difference between those and the Apexi coilovers that are on my car.

Thanks for the reply. They were the drag coilover too? So they arent terrible to drive..the guy at hks made it sound like the car couldnt be driven...so couldnt follow that but.. whatever. So the car still maintained fair cornering. was straightline better?
Thanks again

The drag version squats down (in the rear) upon launch and then "slowly" rises untill the next shift (then repeats).
