neuspeed springs? camber kit or not? Sagging?

just trying to figure out what exactly the real drop is, the listing says 1.75 but i heard springs eventually sag?

Who has neuspeed?

Also i heard that comptech springs dont sag, whats the deal there?

You won't find a lot of foolz with the neuspeeds here. I think I am only one of two or three TOTAL!!!!!!! Everyone here is stuck on Comptech. Their loss!!! The neuspeeds gave me exactly 1.75 inch drop. I haven't noticed any sagging. I will measure the drop again tomorrow and let you know for sure. The rear looks like it might need a camber kit, but so far no unusual tire wear. I have about 10k miles on the car with the springs on. I'll post some pics so you can see the drop. As for ride quality, all I can say is GET THE KONI'S!!!!! The ride to me is AWESOME!!!!! For the most part, it seems just a little stiffer than stock. When you hit a bump or pot hole, then you realize how stiff they are!!!! The Comptech's are about 10% stiffer than stock. The Neuspeeds are about 25% - 30% stiffer than stock. You will notice the difference when you take a corner!!!!! You get very little lean and the car feels stable!!!!! The reason I said to get the Koni's, is because with the stock shocks, you ride will be BOUNCY!!!!! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask me.

I just swapped my comptechs for H&R race. F - 2.2", R - 1.75". I thought i would need a rear camber kit but my car aligned perfectly. Saved me $220.
