I had them on my C6Z, and they were a great improvement. Back end was much more planted, none of that "unsettled" feeling the car would get on the stock suspension if you hit a bump in a turn, etc. The coilovers definitely made a difference on track, you can get back on the power sooner, turn-in is more immediate, and in general the car feels more stable.

I have had mine about 6 months. I recently ran them on the track for the first time. They perform Fantastically! Lou knows what he is doing and the shock and the springs are top of the line quality. No issues in installing them and setting ride hight. Most guys I see don't know how to adjust a car or shocks so they struggle. No adjustments with LGs. They just work. I have larger anti roll bars and improved bushings so my car is a little stiff for the street but that is the way I like it. I don't think you can go wrong with LG shocks! Just my 2 cents.

The LG coilovers are a fantastic product. What I like about them is the ability to talk with Anthony at LGM and discuss what my specific setup is so that they can provide appropriate springs to match my situation.

I added them over the winter (along with polybushings, bump steer ends and corner balance) and have found that they have allowed me to significantly improve my overall driving performance because of how well balanced and planted the car feels when driven at the limit. The car is very predicatable which breeds driver confidence.

In short, they are robust, effective and are backed with excellent customer service.

Even though Lou insults me regularly, they sell great products, and I wouldn't hesitate buying from them.
