Answers are; no and no(aligned to stock specs). I have the comptech's. Yes it rides different, a little more snug and feel to the road. It's not bad; feels more like a Nike compared to a regular gym shoe.

Regrets. Yup I do. I regret I didn't get them SOONER! 
Along with the sways the handling is way way way better.

CT springs are awesome...no regrets...although, ricers tend to pick a race with me more often.

i like em too, i've had em on for about 7k miles and my dealer says the tire well is 100% normal. love the improved handling. i wonder how much the skidpad rating improves with the springs.

No regrets here. I still think the car should have come stock with comptech springs.
There is just a certain confidence now. Can't really pin point it but just more confident rolling down the street.
Springs, sways, and different tires.. now you have a canyon carver.

I was asking a few guys at the meet last weekend about this.
One guy with a TL has been running comptech srpings with stock shocks for 2 years. He has not had any problems.

The shocks...so far, so good after about 2k miles. If you want a canyon carver, get springs, sways, Konis, (or just shell out some extra cash for coilovers) and better tires. Astro has the whole set and he said it handles almost as well as his Porsche. Any comments Astro?
