Re: Uprating suspension (Another one)

I was thing about same set of lesjeford 1013133 springs on skandix but to be honest the price is a bit steep to me. And i'm wondering if there is any sense to install this kit. Maybe to improve handling I should just buy a set of Kayabas and leave the springs alone. Any suggestions ?
