H&R spring question

I've been looking for a set of springs for my 05 MCS. its my dd but i dont mind it having a stiff ride, i want a set of stiff springs without going with coilovers so i found TMS33337RACE on turner motorsports website. http://www.turnermotorsport.com/show...-mini-cooper-s
that is the link to them. very high spring rate. my question is has anyone had these springs yet? what do you think?

I would think that judging by those rates, Koni Yellows or Bilstein HD shocks would/should be in your future!

I figured I would have to get a set of Koni Yellows. But I was hoping someone had these springs and could let me know how they feel.

As far as i have seen lurking around these parts i haven't seen these springs mentioned before. My guess would be those are too stiff to be reasonable for the street and i would think struts would need to be re-valved as well making the cost close to coil-over territory. I would check out the swift spring thread, https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...g-springs.html They should be the bees knees when they come out. I know I'm waiting impatiently for them. -Jonathan
