Will do. So far they ride like stock imo. But we have to wait a few weeks to let coils settle and re align car afterwards. I'll keep you posted. Please like and subscribe. Thank you

How are you feeling about these springs after living with them for a few months? Too stiff for daily?

How is the ride quality in normal? Stiffer/bouncier than stock?

This is not a DIY video.

The first 10 min of the video is a 1st person drive on the car through random backroads.

The following 3 min is the same with the camera going around random cars

The last 7 min of the video include the car being taken to a professional shop, driving into a lift and a time lapse video of a professional taking down the suspension without any explanation.

As DIY, video this gets 1/5

For anyone installing MSS Springs I found these videos to be quite helpful. The MSS Instructions leave a lot to be desired.


Not MSS Specific but a very solid guide for how to do springs on these cars. Includes torque specs.



Be sure to note the orientation of the upper rubber isolator piece on the rear springs so you reinstall them correctly.

Hoping to pick up the car from the shop to have the MSS springs installed, they had completed it yesterday and the front looked great, but the rear still had a lot of height even at the lowest setting- having looked around in the forums and install videos like OP posted, it seems the issue was that they kept the lower OEM rubber isolator for the rear when installing the springs, so I brought it back to have them exclude it.

Would anybody be able to attest to this being the proper installation? I know metal on metal contact isn't ideal but as per MSS instructions it doesn't state anywhere to re-use the isolator for the rear, whereas for the front they provide an isolator and instruct it to be installed. Wanting to know if the lack of one results in any unwantedsounds?

I should also mention that after having checked other forum posts of MSS installs that the orientation is correct and the springs are seated correctly.

I didn't reuse the OEM isolator, no issues with the metal-on-metal contact.

Got the car back and it's sitting perfectly! Exactly what I was after with the springs, have an tight 1 finger gap all around now- and it rides pretty close to factory with zero noise!
