Pros:
|
aggressive stance (bye-bye wheel well gap)
|
|
Cons:
|
|
|
Just had them installed with a set of KYB AGXs. For those on a budget like me (broke college student), Perrin Springs with good struts is the best bang for the buck suspension mod out there. I love the aggressive look the springs brings to the car. A bit stiffer than stock on the softest AGX settings, but not at all harsh for daily commuting.

Ride on stock struts
|
|
Of all the springs available for the WRX, that claim a decent ride on the stock struts, these are second only to Prodrives. The stance is great (see: http://photos.imageevent.com/olivare.../Dsc00281.jpg), the ride is very decent if the road stays fairly smooth. Otherwise it\'s pretty harsh, especially around curves the mismatched damping becomes awkwardly obvious as you go bouncing around the corner.
If you need a lowered stance, and don\'t mind some harshness, these springs are a great value. I would recommend pairing them with some adjustable struts to properly match the damping.

Pros:
|
ride height (no more wheel gap)
|
|
Cons:
|
none yet
|

Install was a breeze (use air tools!). No install surprises. Seems to work fairly well with stock suspension components. Haven\'t tested yet on track, but that will happen soon enough.
**remember to mark adjustable bolts during install**

Pros:

Eliminates wheel gap, nice stance
|
|
Cons:
|
Can be bouncy on the freeway
|
|
I installed these springs on my 2002 WRX along with 17\" wheels and the results are great. These springs got rid of the aweful tire/fender gap that the stock springs have. These springs also give the car an agressive stance and superior handling. The only con is that they can feel somewhat bouncy on the freeway. Other than that, these are a great set of springs.
