Well, they're fitted (Apex lowering springs -35 mm) and these are my findings; looks are just a bit better but i believe they need a few weeks to settle properly and they might drop a bit more , no?
Comfort is ....amazingly good, i can even say it's a lot comfier than my Miata fitted with way more expensive H&R springs, off course it's another car...
Price is ...even better , about a third cheaper than the "big" brands.
I'm running 17 inchers with 215-40/17 tyres and after lots of reading i found some sources pretending that for a correct look -35 mm is not low enough, but if after a few weeks it still has that monster truck-look then i'd rather switch to 16 inch instead of getting any lower.
Hop this revieuw is helpfull for any potential purchasers.
Pics will follow in a few weeks (after the "settling" period and the snow).

Can't wait for the pictures! I'm deciding on either these Apex's, Eibach's, or Tein S-Techs..
Want a lowered look but not slammed on either 15's or 16's (had a slammed sc300 on springs a couple months ago and it looked great but definitely not a daily driver =/).

Here you go aldizzurp...few pics after a couple of "settling" weeks , is 35 mm's lower and pleases me (daily driver...) but for some "tuning" lovers it may still sit a bit high, comfort and handling are just great (lot less bodyroll) but remember ; these wheels are 17 inch (215-40/17) so i believe that if you ride 15 or 16" it would just look great.
