The motorsports springs are a good set for the price. But the "C" springs have a much higher rate than the "B" springs do. You might not like how rough they ride. The "B"'s ride good, look good, and definetly make their presence known when cornering.

if you are putting drag shocks on it then go with a set of drag springs!

If your gonna put drag shocks on it go with a set of adjustables. Preferably with a external **** type adjuster. You'll get really sick of taking your shock off to change shock values. I really don't think you'll like the drag springs if your gonna drive it around town. Those types of springs really like to transfer weight all the time (stoping, turning) and can get annoying after a while. With the "B" springs and a set of adjustables you can find a happy medium between race and comfort.
