I had these on my '07 FXT using WRX sedan struts with Koni inserts. I had to add 1/2" HDPE spacers on all 4 corners for extra height. The springs made the car handle great but were a bit too low and stiff for my daily driving. I replaced them with Prodrive 05 STi red springs and gained about 1/2" of travel, the ride quality is better now with a bit more body roll.

Pictures of my different setups using these springs:

Straight up -- pretty low, my 18" ROTAs were rubbing.

With 1/2" spacers, stock 17" wheels.

With 1/2" spacers, 17" P7s.

With 1/2" spacers, 18" ROTAs.
