TIC convinced me to get a set of these over AGXs and H&R springs.

I'll report back once I have them on.

Are these the silver ones they're preselling right now on NASIOC? I saw them the other day and TIC says they're the cats pajamas so I kind of wanted a set myself but I'm broke.

Those would be them :D

They are meant for a GD. So I am also getting HVT camber plates to give me adjustability and regain the camber I would loose.

Half the cost would be the Whiteline Com C mounts.

So,

TurnInConcepts took my money in January. Had a ton of unexplained delays in shipping these things, lots of e-mails went back and forth asking what was going on with my order. Then come May I find out they never put me on the order list and refunded me.

Awesome company.

Yeah that's too bad. TiC are friends of mine and good guys. They did move and got a dyno and started building engines and have a lot of things going on, but not really an excuse. I order the occasional thing from them on the wholesale side and I have to admit they aren't quite as quick and reliable as some of the WDs I use, and sometimes stuff gets missed.

Anyway, what are you planning to get now? A good alternate would be the ST coilovers, and they make those for GC so they'll fit without alignment issues. Similar price or maybe less, based off a non-adjustable KW. Not in stock at either distributor unfortunately so it would be a couple weeks.
