There is still plenty of movement with stock tires, although the stickier the tire the more movement there will be.

Ordered some, wish they were out when I did springs as you have to unbolt the same things when swapping them.

Also, some people have been asking if this raises the car - installing our IRS Subframe Support System does not raise the car whatsoever.

David: What effect do these have on handling during cornering? I would think it would help with more immediacy when the outside spring is first getting compressed, rather than a double action of subframe being pushed closer to the chassis and the outside spring starting to compress at the same time (or in succession?). No significant ride penalty, despite the "compliance" that the stock subframe range of motion allows?

Is there any other benefit besides reducing wheel hop?

In addition to stopping wheel hop, another key benefit is stopping the IRS subframe from moving.

Question 1 - They give you a more positive feel of the road as the rear IRS subframe is no longer deflecting during cornering.

Question 2 - In our testing we have not noticed a negative difference in ride quality at all as we are still using the factory bushings, we are just supporting them better.

Can't wait to see your results - I would really like to see how it does with street tires. That tiny bit of hop with the dr's doesn't compare to street tires that hop for a full 60'+.

you would only hop more on DR's. if you're hooking harder with better tires you're just going to hop more.... I don't know why anyone is asking for street tires.. street tires would just have a better chance at losing traction and spinning and spinning will reduce wheel hop. its when you find some good traction but a slight spin and a squishy rear end, that you will find wheel hop.
