I had mine done on Friday . I like my vehicle s to be lower than this turned out but i am still quite pleased with the look . Going to wait for the wheels to come in and decide if i want to trim a little off or not . I thought the drop rating wouldn't be enough but it actually made quite a difference .

Yes it did. I am home now on emergency leave so my neighbor took delivery. $200 customs fee! I placed the order for the H&R springs but the vendor canceled since they don’t ship to APO. Back to the drawing board on that.

Besides the appearance, do these springs improve drive performance? I’m not a fan of how the ST “tilts” (not sure the if that’s the proper term) when making a tight turn at speed with the stock springs.

Would installing these or a different aftermarket spring design help with that or is this purely aesthetic?

I just installed mine but still have the stock springs. What a difference. This will help with towing too if needed. The SUV drives like a sports car. Can’t wait to get the Steeda lowering springs.

That’s great! Is it just one sway bar or two?

I just did the rear one. Pretty straight forward install with the right tools. I also added the exhaust and tune. The only two additions I am considering now are the Steeda springs and possibly the intercooler then I’m done. Good enough.

I'm not sure the front sway bar is worth replacing. To my surprise, the stock one is pretty beefy.

How about strut tower braces?

The stock one may not be pretty, but it should work just fine. I'm sure you'll see some aftermarket replacements soon enough that will claim to be beefier and look better.
