Default Vogtland Springs installed!

Hey guys, had my Vogtland Sport Springs installed yesterday. They are supposed to settle to a 1.6" drop. I remember before leaving for the shop, i could put my hand with 4 fingers between the tire and fender, now only fit 2. I'll get measurements before and after they settle.

This picture was taken in my driveway, which is at an incline. I'll post more tomorrow on a flat surface.

These springs feel great, still comfortable ride.

Hence why I stated it's in my driveway, which it at an incline. Doesn't look like that on a flat surface. I post more pics tomorrow.

The stance looks nice my friend. How much were they and where did you get them? Does anyone know what the spring rate is on these springs and how comparable they would be to the ProKit? I love the ride of the pro kit.

I know Mustangmann has them on his and he has some of the isos out and they really compliment the look of the car. I like the idea of the ProKit because I would not have to run CC plates or aftermarket shocks and struts, correct?

Sorry for thread jacking but your springs looks great!
