We have a local customer having a set installed sometime next week and will hopefully provide some more feedback then.

That is the only review I have ever seen of this package, and that guy was reviewing his street impresson on floppy sidewall tires. Sticky tires on a racetrack would be the review I'd like to see.

Here's what I said after getting my Works springs installed.

Has pics too.
I've been very pleased with the Works ride springs and rear sway bar. My setup includes SSR GT2 18x8.5 wheels, with 235/40/18 Michelen Pilot Sport PS2 tires. Works SS-1 suspension package was, imho, a lot of bang for the buck. Nice drop (although sure seems like more than the advertised 7/8 inches), lower center of gravity, more neutral steering, predictable behavior at the limits, less bodyroll, faster side to side transitions. No bottoming out or rubbing. Pretty much what you would expect when adding stiffer, lower springs, and a larger reear swaybar to a car that understeers at the limit and sits pretty high up to begin with.
As far as ride quality goes, definitely harsher. The roads where I drive are pretty good, but if I drove somewhere where the roads are pretty crappy, it might get a little tiresome. Well worth the tradeoff - more performance for a little less comfort.
havent' taken the car to the track yet, so cant tell you about that. I've got 2 days of track time coming up in the end of feb...
good luck!
