well i ordered them through a store
so i can alwayz tell'em i dont want'em anymore and get a different brand
so im asking if the B&Gz are good, or if i should get something else like the eibach 1.5"front 1.2"back
reason i chose the B&Gz is because its 1.6" all around so i thought it would look a bit better
but im guessing the other ones will handle a bit better

it's not much of a drop, but the profile on my winters are smaller than stock so there's still some wheel gap..
