Keep the comments coming folks. At this stage I am still considering these as a way to give me a way to corner-weight the car, but I won't be getting them if the spring rates aren't in the ball park. I still haven't got an answer from the seller, so I'm totally in the dark about details at the moment.
At the time I was doing alot of research into a suspension setup and spent alot of time on miatanet and clubroadster. The threads were somewhere in there. I was pretty much after independant height control as well so I had a look at these as well as ground control but decided in the end to do it properly with a full adjustable coilover. The problem is that one person can say they are very harsh and another person can say they are only a little bit harsh and you don't know whose opinion to take but the general concensus with these is that they work but are very harsh. On top of that I was worried about longevity as well. They look great in the pics but there are a couple of different spring construction methods that are used with some being better than others. Also I took into account the fact that they may have skimped on the quality of the metal used (dad always says you get what you pay for). There were just no long term reports yet about how they hold up quality wise and with the lack of information they quickly got axed from my shortlist.
