I've been thinking about going with the QA1's for my car for a while now and want to know what your experiences have been with these parts? Any pitfalls or problems that the various vendors don't mention on their websites?

My car is not a daily-driver any more but I still want to have nice drivability/handling while being able to adjust the suspension for the dragstrip so the QA1's seem to be the way to go.

Will the rear QA1's work ok with my Hotchkis rear springs (1.25" lowered)? I saw on BMR's site that they make spacers for lowered cars, what will I need to make the installation as painless as possible?

I have the QA1 shocks and front springs. And Goldline rear lowering springs (1.5") The system works very well and is very versatile. I have not run into problems with this setup.

The springs suck for anything but the track. I took mine off and reinstalled my Eibachs. Don't know what I was thinking. Love the shocks though. Can't really think of any drawbacks except they're being a little pricey.:)
