i'd go with maxton every time.
I checked out the hagons which are progressive springs and racetech which are similar to maxton but will cost you more, so i went with the maxton linear springs and the difference, from the worn out standard springs, is remarkable.
RRSP is spot on, what Richard doesn't know about suspension probable aint worth knowing, give em a call
