couldnt be happier. i was actually surprised how nice the ride quality was IMHO. i did my daily commute from sj to sf and back and did not mind it at all. ride wasnt all bumpy and annoyingly aggressive. not sure how they compare to other springs, but compared to the stockies, they werent too stiff provided a nice drop all around. prob going to go with RCE again when they come out with springs for the '15

are bump stoppers needed? if so where can I get some if I get these springs since you don't have yours.

the racecompengineering website says bump stops are not needed. Would it make any significant difference not to put bump stops in?

If you want to do it right get koni inserts with bumpstops and your car will feel like a dream till you raise the dampnening
