Pro-Kit Installed

First impressions with the Pro-kit.... LOW!!! Mine looks very low. Don't know if everyone elses is the same.
Ride quality is good. Definately handles better. Seems like a stiff ride. Personally i like it. Don't know if i'm crazy for that.
Seems like something is "hissing" when i'm driving.. don't know if this is normal??? Is there a break-in period for the springs...
I have pics if someone will host them.....??

I don't think there is such thing as "break in" for springs. There is where you have to give the springs a day or two to settle in and it will be bit lower. And the hissing noise? Sorry it'll be hard to help since we're not there to listen to.

Get a set of dampers to go with the springs. Koni Sports are good. Bouncy ride comes from the progressive spring rate moving from about stock rates to something much stiffer and thus beyond the control of stock dampers. Which explains your seemingly turbulent ride.
