Finally a suspension upgrade...look this over?
Been watching for a used coil over system and came upon these....

He tracked the car and is not sure how it will be for street applications. Im looking for improved handling and a lowered ride height, I dont mind (and anticipate) a stiffer ride just dont want bone jarring. Im a rookie on spring rates and coilovers however I had eibach lowering springs and bilstine sport struts on my 986 and loved the suspension (it was transformative to say the least). Anyone have any input on how stiff a ride this will be for street applications only? Any input on the spring rates they come with? Any input at all? Just want to ask around before I pull the trigger...
As always thanks. 05 987.1S boxster.

Imo they are a little stiff for a light car on the street. If the price is good you can get a new set of softer springs at any rate you want from Swift for about $400 I think.
